SYNOPSIS

ruptime [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

Ruptime prints a status line like uptime for each machine on the local network.  It forms these lines from packets broadcast by each host on the network once a minute. 

If ruptime hasn’t received a status report from a machine for 5 minutes, it lists the machine as being down. 

Normally, ruptime sorts the listing by host name, but you can alter this order by specifying one of the options listed below.
