Use the no version to set the default, 16 hops.

Use to set the maximum number of consecutive failures to respond to a probe's request.
When the maximum number is reached, the test stops.
This option applies only to pathEcho entries.
To turn off this feature, set the value to 0.
Example
host1(config-rtr)#max-response-failure 2
Use the no version to set the default, 5 consecutive failures.
See max-response-failure
Collecting History
RTR can collect data samples for a given probe. These samples are referred to as history
data. When RTR collects history, it refers to tests. A test is the lifetime of a probe operation.
Use to set the maximum number of entries in the history table for each RTR probe.
This command enables you to control the number of samples saved in the history
table.
If you set the number of samples to 0, no samples are kept.
Because collecting history increases memory usage, do so only when there is a problem
in your network.
Example
host1(config-rtr)#samples-of-history-kept 5
Use the no version to set the default, 16 hops for pathEcho type, 1 hop for echo type.
See samples-of-history-kept
Setting the Receiving Interface
When you configure multiple RTR entries to use the same target address, you must issue
the receive-interface command to set the interface on which the probe expects to receive
responses. This action enables the router to map incoming responses to the proper RTR
entry, even when multiple RTR entries have the same target address.
Use to specify the interface on which the RTR probe expects to receive responses.
You must set this attribute when multiple RTR entries are configured to use the same
target address.
