We use smokeping to measure loss and latency and have a wrapper for sipsak to do the sip ping. Smomepkng is great stuff.

I had a situation the other day where the daemon was running, but hung, and would not respond to requests. ICMP pings to the machine worked, as did monitoring of the process list, but the machine would not respond to SIP requests. I found this draft during my research: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jones-sip-options-ping-02 Anyone know of a unix utility that can easily send a SIP OPTIONS request to a remote server and return the results in a useful format? I could probably construct one using Net::SIP in perl, but I like to take the easy way out when possible :).
