  Description     : Prometheus exporter for blackbox monitoring

 The blackbox exporter allows blackbox probing of network endpoints over HTTP,
 HTTPS, DNS, TCP and ICMP. Additional modules can be defined to suit other needs.
 .
 Querying of endpoints happens via HTTP GET queries, by specifying the target
 name and what kind of probing to execute. Results from the probe are returned
 in the form of Prometheus metrics.
