Comments:

• See previous post
  
• Command line options on the PING
  
  
  
  • -n Count, Determines the number of echo requests to send. The default is 4 requests. In the BAT file this is set to 2
    
  • -w Timeout, Enables you to adjust the time-out (in milliseconds). The default is 1,000 (a 1-second time-out). In the BAT file this is set to 750

• If the PING fails, "TTL=" is not found
  
• If PING is successful, the device name plus "was PINGABLE" is written to the comma delimited file
  
• Else, the device name plus "was NOT pingable" is written to the file
