Ping performance data

[matthewwilson at dsl.pipex.com]

Hi,
I am experimenting with using Nagios to monitor network hosts using satelite 
net connections.   AS we dont currently have any SNMP capable routers on our 
network, we wish to use ping RTA tiems to give a crude indication of network 
traffic.   Is there a modificiation available to the check_ping plugin that I 
could use to return the RTA as performance data? I would then export this data 
to a .csv file or something for graphing in Excel.

Alternatively, can anyone suggest another indicator of network traffic that I 
could use with Nagios (pref without running s/w on our client's networks)

Thanks
