Solve : ping help?

Answer»

By defalt a Ping pacet is 32 Bytes big.

And by defalt Ping will send 4. Pacets of 32 Bytes eatch.

32 Bytes
32 Bytes
32 Bytes
32 Bytes

Like so.

But how big can you make a Pacet?Why do you ask? What are you trying to do?I'm curious why you need that, but....you have to use "-l size" switch.
For instance....

Interesting, Broni, I never knew about the "I" switch with ping. But why would anyone legitimately need to use it?It's a MYSTERY to me too Quote from: Broni on February 12, 2011, 09:41:28 PM
