Performance Pinging, Perfping.exe

Version 2.0.1; May 2006

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.

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
