We have a compiled C program (ping_this) that will run the standard ping function via hostname. From the user, we are receiving a list of devices along with a building selection. On the server side, we need to be able to assemble/generate all the hostnames to ping and then carry out the function before passing back a string of integers, '1010101' indicating if a devices was found online and named correctly (implying configured). We then need the host to receive this final transmission and display the progress in the terminal and provide the user with an exported csv file.
