fping is a ping(1) like program which uses the Internet Control Message Protocol
|
|
(ICMP) echo request to determine if a host is up. fping is different from ping in
|
|
that you can specify any number of hosts on the command line, or specify a file
|
|
containing the lists of hosts to ping. Instead of trying one host until it timeouts
|
|
or replies, fping will send out a ping packet and move on to the next host in a
|
|
round-robin fashion. If a host replies, it is noted and removed from the list of
|
|
hosts to check. If a host does not respond within a certain time limit and/or retry
|
|
limit it will be considered unreachable.
