ping intervals

[himacs]

Hi all,

I want get ping output with time intervals.

For eg:
in hp-ux
64 bytes from 10.11.7.140: icmp_seq=324. time=0. ms
timr shows in 0.

but in windows
Reply from 192.168.203.170: bytes=32 time=156ms TTL=244
Reply from 192.168.203.170: bytes=32 time=156ms TTL=244
time show 156ms.

Please anybody help me on this.

Regards,
himacs

Hi:

...another good reason not to use Windows :-)

Seriously, you don't show the route from/to. You could do a 'traceroute' for example.

Your ping is probably faster than my ping

Ooops, cut'n'paste problem:

64 bytes from 1.2.3.4: icmp_seq=0. time=17. ms


but faster

64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1. time=0. ms

and on windows:

To say it more clearly, if time is <1ms then you see 0ms.

Hi Torsten,

thanks for ur reply..

M also wondering why it shows in 0.ms
really its very fast..


is there any arguments,we can use with ping to get a clear output?

the output is what it is. as torsen stated, sub-millisecond times report as "0". What more do you want?

ping is, after all, a very simple tool used to verify network connectivity, and not necessarly identify bottlenecks and such.

what are you attempting to use it for that the existing results are not acceptable?

[Torsten.]

Basically hp-ux and windows are telling the same; 0.x ms or < 1ms.

What's the problem? Too fast?

[himacs]

hi,

it shows result in 0. ms. so i thought some problem there.

Congratulations, you have a fast network!

BTW, sometimes I hate this colorful OS on my PC that can't be used without a mouse, but a few commands are quite nice.

Did you ever try

C:\> pathping

C:\> pathping /?

Usage: pathping [-g host-list] [-h maximum_hops] [-i address] [-n]
[-p period] [-q num_queries] [-w timeout] [-P] [-R] [-T]
[-4] [-6] target_name

Options:
-g host-list Loose source route along host-list.
-h maximum_hops Maximum number of hops to search for target.
-i address Use the specified source address.
-n Do not resolve addresses to hostnames.
-p period Wait period milliseconds between pings.
-q num_queries Number of queries per hop.
-w timeout Wait timeout milliseconds for each reply.
-P Test for RSVP PATH connectivity.
-R Test if each hop is RSVP aware.
-T Test connectivity to each hop with Layer-2 priority tags.
-4 Force using IPv4.
-6 Force using IPv6.


Have fun!
