DESCRIPTION:
To verify the operational status of an Ethernet interface the command
PING is used. This command tests the network connection and target
server’s ability to respond.
If no other parameters are specified, four requests will be sent. This
can be changed with the parameter “-c”. The typical size of a ping
packet can be changed with the parameter “-s” and the time between
requests, which is typically one second, can be changed with the pa-
rameter “-w”.
Responses to the PING command are dependent on the performance
of the network.
USAGE:
Send ten packets, 100 bytes long, and wait two seconds between
packets
