[smokeping-users] Smokeping - Why 20 pings?

[Hopkins, Charles G.]

I'm sure this has probably been asked before, but why was the number 20
chosen as the number of pings to use for SmokePing?

I am trying to justify not changing this setting as our network admins are
complaining about the number of outbound ICMP packets generated by the
product we are using (OpenNMS) which uses this functionality.

Thanks in advance.

In the meantime I will keep on Googling for an answer.

Sincerely,

*Chaz*
