Question

How many devices the Ping Probe can ping?

Cause

The probe pings the hosts specified in the ping file in cycles. The minimum length of each cycle is specified by the Interval property. During each ping cycle, the probe pings the number of hosts specified by the MaxPingBurst property.

Answer

 

Maximum number of hosts = MaxPingBurst * ( Poll / Interval )
