LENGTH PING POLL DATA

length (ping-poll data)

Overview This command specifies the number of data bytes to include in the data portion of
the ping packet. This allows you to set the ping packets to a larger size if you find
that larger packet types in your network are not reaching the polled device, while
smaller packets are getting through. This encourages the polling instance to
change the device's status to unreachable when the network is dropping packets
of the size you are interested in.
The no variant of this command resets the data bytes to the default of 32 bytes.
