YES the loopback test will be initiated. NO the loopback test will not be initiated.

Specify the IP address of the remote host. A valid IP address must be entered.

Specify the size of each packet, in bytes, to be sent to the remote host. The minimum is 64 (default) and the maximum is 2048.

Specify the length of time, in seconds, to wait for a response from the remote host. The default is 1 and the maximum is 100.

Specify the number of pint test packets to send for this test. Select a value from 1 to 100. To configure the test to run continuously, select 0.

If the ping test was not set for continuous operation, you can choose to print the test results. YES to print results, NO to skip.

Displays the number of packets (0-65535) received from the remote host since the most recent test was initiated or completed.

Displays the percent of ping test packets that wee sent with no response from the remote host since the most recent test was initiated or completed.

Displays the minimum detected round-trip-time (RTT), from 0 to 4096 milliseconds, for packet transmission and response.

Displays the maximum detected RTT, from 0 to 4096 milliseconds, for packet transmission and response.

Displays the average detected RTT, from 0 to 4096 milliseconds, for packet transmission and response.
