**DESCRIPTION:**
The ping utility uses the ICMP protocol's mandatory ECHO_REQUEST
datagram to elicit an ICMP ECHO_RESPONSE from a host or gateway.
ECHO_REQUEST datagrams ("pings") have an IP and ICMP header,
followed by a "struct timeval" and then an arbitrary number of
"pad" bytes used to fill out the packet. The options are as
follows:

the IP header is only large enough for nine such routes; the
traceroute(8) command is usually better at determining the route
packets take to a particular destination. If more routes come back
than should, such as due to an illegal spoofed packet, ping will print
the route list and then truncate it at the correct spot. Many hosts

**NOTES:**
When using ping for fault isolation, it should first be run on the
local host, to verify that the local network interface is up and
running. Then, hosts and gateways further and further away should be
"pinged". Round-trip times and packet loss statistics are computed.
If duplicate packets are received, they are not included in the packet
loss calculation, although the round trip time of these packets is
used in calculating the round-trip time statistics. When the
specified number of packets have been sent a brief summary is
displayed, showing the number of packets sent and received, and the
minimum, mean, maximum, and standard deviation of the round-trip
times.
