PING-POLLING COMMANDS
SAMPLE
-SIZE
sample-size
Overview This command sets the total number of pings that the polling instance inspects
when determining whether a device is unreachable. If the number of pings
specified by the fail-count command go unanswered within the inspected
sample, then the device is declared unreachable.
If the numbers set in this command and fail-count command are the same, the
unanswered pings must be consecutive. If the number set by this command is
greater than that set with the fail-count command, a device that does not always
reply to pings may be declared unreachable.
You cannot set this command’s value lower than the fail-count value.
The polling instance uses the number of pings specified by the up-count
command to determine when a device is reachable.
The no variant of this command resets this command to the default.
