Loop through list of ip-addresses [SOLVED] - AlphaInc - May-11-2022
Hello everybody,
I want to use a python script to check if certain ips are still online and if not, i want the system to shut down.
Therefore I have created a list of client ip's and a loop to check every ip if its online or not and then, if all ip's are down, execute a command (in this example it is the command #Command1) and if not, it should execute another command (in this exampe #Command2).
def ip_check():
hosts = [
"192.168.180.100",
"192.168.180.101",
"192.168.180.102",
"192.168.180.103",
"192.168.180.104",
"192.168.180.105",
"192.168.180.106"
]
for x in hosts:
host_response = os.system("ping -c 1 " + str(hosts))
if guest_response == 0:
#Command1
else:
#Command2The problem is, all i get is this output and I don't know how to fix it:ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known

You need to move the if/else statement into the for loop to check each ip

Like this?:
for x in hosts:
host_response = os.system("ping -c 1 " + str(hosts))
if host_response == 0:
print ("Command1")
else:
print ("Command2") I still get this message:
ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known Command2 ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known Command2 ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known Command2 ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known Command2 ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known Command2 ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known Command2 ping: 192.168.180.106]: Name or service not known Command2

if/else inside the for loop
import os
def ip_check():
hosts = [f'192.168.180.{index}' for index in range(100, 107)]
for x in hosts:
host_response = os.system(f"ping -n 1 {x}")
if host_response == 0:
print('command 1')
else:
print('command 2')
ip_check()

I copied your code 1:1 but I still get the message that the name or service (106) is not known...

I updated the code above. coarse I changed -c to -n

Okay nice, that works.
And what if the ips don't come in a row (for example .10, .55 and .104) ?

You can make your original list. The list I made was a quick way for me to do it. (If that is what you are referring to)
