+=== Add new probes to Smokeping ===
+The current entry in the Probes file is fine, but if you wish to use additional Smokeping checks you can add them in here and you can specify their default behavior. You can do this, as well, in the Targets file if you wish.
+
+To add a probe to check for HTTP latency as well as DNS lookup latency, edit the Probes file and add the following text TO THE END of that file:
+{{{
+# vim Probes 
+}}}
+{{{
++ EchoPingHttp
+
++ EchoPingHttps
