# pingHost
The hostname or URL of the target application to ping when validating network connectivity. By default, google.com is used, but this should be overridden to point to your actual target application-especially in restricted networks, firewalled environments, or when you want to verify connectivity to a specific internal or external service.
Type: string
Default: "google.com"
Example (YAML):
options:
pingHost: "app1.com"
1
2
2
Example (CLI):
./yc -pingHost "app1.com"
1
Note:
Set pingHost to the hostname or URL of the application you are running against. This ensures the connectivity check targets your actual service rather than an unrelated host, giving you a more accurate health signal for your environment.
