<h1 class="topictitle1">Ping parameters</h1>
|
|
<div><p>Ping parameters enable you to adjust the way the Ping command performs
|
|
its test of connectivity.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>The Ping command includes various parameters, such as packet length
|
|
and wait time for a response. The default wait time of 1 second allows the
|
|
remote system enough time to respond in most networks. However, if the remote
|
|
system is far away or if the network is busy, increasing the wait time parameter
|
|
can improve the results.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>It is recommended that the parameter values be left at their default
|
|
values. Be aware that if you do change them, a combination of large packet
|
|
length and short wait time might not give the network enough time to transmit
|
|
and receive the response, and time-outs can occur. If the network is not given
|
|
enough time to transmit and receive the response, it can appear that you do
|
|
not have connectivity to a system when, in fact, you do.</p>
