The shell will output something like this: <b>64 bytes from 98.138.219.232: icmp_seq=0 ttl=49 time=144.781 ms </b>for each packets that return (echoed back).
To stop the ping command press <code>control + c</code></p>
until you stop the ping command, and the shell will display the stats. </li><br>
<li><code>-R</code> (Record route), displays the route buffer on the packets that include RECORD_ROUTE in the ECHO_REQUEST.</li><br>
<li><code>-r</code> bypass the normal routing in a directly-attached network </li><br>
<li><code>-s</code> (packetsize) Specifies the data bytes to send (default is 56 that + 8 byte of ICMP = 64 ICMP data bytes) <br>
Example: ping -s 33 yahoo.com; send packets of 33 + 8 ICMP = 41 bytes to yahoo.com. </li><br>
<li><code>-t</code> set IP time-to-live (set how long execute ping in seconds) <br>
Example: ping -t 3: the shell will ping yahoo.com for 3 seconds, and then stops.</li><br>
<li><code>-U</code> print full user-to-user latency (legacy ping behaviour).</li><br>
<li><code>-v</code> output verbose on output </li><br>
<li><code>-V</code> Display verion of command </li><br>
<li><code>-w</code> (deadline) Timeout in seconds of ping command, regardless of how many packets have been sent. </li><br>
<li><code>-W</code> (timeout), time waiting for a response from the server, if the server dosen't reply in the time set, the ping command will stop. </li><br>
