0
means packets will be sent until the operator terminates the process.
Packet Count
is a number of packets that will be sent before ping generation terminates. Specifying
0
disables automatic termination.
Flood
will cause (if
Y
) the ping function to send as many packets to the IP address as fast as
it can.
Flooding can be hard on the network and should be used only if
necessary, and only during a period of relative network inac-
tivity.
Inter-Packet Time
specifies an interval between packets sent.
