How does it work and what does it do?
Perfping is a tool that allows you to ping a host continuously or with a single
ping using different data volumes. This can give you an indication of the
performance of the route to your host. You can change the ping interval from 2
to 30 seconds using various timeouts. The timeout is always smaller than the pinging
interval. Results are written to log window and log file if so chosen.
Unreachable hosts have a value of 0 ms.
The analysis function sends various pings, 10 each of 10 bytes, 100 bytes, 500
bytes, 1 kbytes, 10 kbytes, 50 kybytes and 64 kbytes. The round trip times are
shown with the total and average times.

Performance Pinging
Comments:
- Errors are written to file and log window but may be shown later than
successfull pings when changing ping intervall and timeout during runtime
- Thanks to François Piette for the internet component suite, Angus Robertson
for the threaded version of Ping and Dr. Jürgen Kehrel for the graph component.
