3) Number of test packets sent in a test
If this parameter is set to a number greater than one, the system sends the second test
packet once it receives a response to the first one, or when the test timer times out if it
receives no response after sending the first one, and so forth until the last test packet is
sent out. This parameter is equivalent to the –n keyword in the ping command.
4) Automatic test interval
This parameter is used to allow the system to automatically perform the same test at
regular intervals.
5) Test timeout time
Test timeout time is the time the system waits for an ECHO-RESPONSE packet after it
sends out an ECHO-REQUEST packet. If no ECHO-RESPONSE packet is received
within this time, this test is considered a failure. This parameter is similar to the -t
keyword in the ping command, but has a different unit (the -t keyword in the ping
command is in ms, while the timeout time in the HWPing command is in seconds).
