I did a search and couldn't find (I'm sure its here somewhere) a list of switches for ping running off of a linux box. I had heard sometime back that some of the switches were different and I'm new to the linux part.
What I want to do is from my linux box using straight cmd line or nmap, is ping my server. I don't care about packet size but want it to ping without waiting for a reply and non-stop. This in conjunction with another bandwidth test, I'm determining the performace of the server under various types of loads.
Examples would be appreciated. ie ping -w 192.168.1.1 or nmap -p 192.168.1.1

$man ping
$ping -f 127.xxx.xx.xx
pings until ^C and pings 100 times a second or as fast as the pings are replied to. Which ever is more often.
