the network frequently fails and I would like to monitor the output. I tried to makeshift a command like:



ping www.google.fr | while read pong; do echo "$(date): $pong"; done 1>/dev/null && 2> ~/ping_err.log


but the STDERR is still redirected to STDOUT instead ping_err.log



note:
I want only STDERR in the file (not 2>&1)



Thanks!

Rather than answer your stderr redirection question, I'll suggest a better (IMHO) way:



In https://github.com/waltinator/net-o-matic.git - Watch for (WiFi) network going down, then do a user-specified thing to fix it.



There's a way to monitor your connection:



  ip monitor address | 
egrep --line-buffered
'^Deleted [[:digit:]]+: [[:alnum:]]+[[:space:]]+inet[[:space:]].* scope global ' |
while read line ; do
...


My net-o-matic script also contains a way to ask once:



function netstate () {
# Return network state as "UP" or "DOWN"
#Adjust how you decide net is UP/DOWN
ip link show | egrep -q 'UP,LOWER_UP.* state UP'
if [[ $? -eq 0 ]] ; then
echo "UP"
else
echo "DOWN"
fi
}

    Using your code, this seems to work:



    $ ping www.google.fr 2>&1 > /dev/null | while read pong; do echo "$(date): $pong" ; done 2>&1 > ping_err.log
    [no output]
    $ cat ping_err.log
