Package description for 'fping'

A program to ping hosts in parallel

 fping is a ping(1) like program which uses the Internet Control
 Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request to determine if a host is up.
 fping is different from ping in that you can specify any number of
 hosts on the command line, or specify a file containing the lists of
 hosts to ping. Instead of trying one host until it timeouts or
 replies, fping will send out a ping packet and move on to the next
 host in a round-robin fashion. If a host replies, it is noted and
 removed from the list of hosts to check. If a host does not respond
 within a certain time limit and/or retry limit it will be considered
 unreachable.
