Solaris

Hi... Iam new members at this forum. and I have a little problem with "command ping"
what the "command to ping at limited time", for example
at linux
$ping -c5 10.0.0.62 and the responed as below:
64 bytes from 10.0.0.62: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=0.843 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.62: icmp_seq=2 ttl=128 time=0.250 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.62: icmp_seq=3 ttl=128 time=0.245 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.62: icmp_seq=4 ttl=128 time=0.211 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.62: icmp_seq=5 ttl=128 time=0.223 ms

Responed above :5 row answer responed

BUT I don't know how to ping with limited responed (5 times answer)
at solaris/unix. (because command different)

For solution my trouble, thanks a lot.

man ping

/usr/sbin/ping -s [-l | -U] [-adlLnrRv] [-A addr_family]
[-c traffic_class] [-g gateway [ -g gateway...]] [-
F flow_label] [-I interval] [-i interface] [-P tos] [-
p port] [-t ttl] host [data_size] [npackets]

For example:

ping -s 111.222.333.444 57 5

for 5 packets (this applies to Solaris)

On Solaris:

Code:

ping -s 10.0.0.62 64 5

The first argument after the IP address is the size of the ping packet the second is the number of packets to send.

On Linux:

Code:

ping -c 5 10.0.0.62

The -c argument take a number of packets to send as its value

Yes...
Thanks a lot of.
