- Ping the specified host:
`ping "{{hostname}}"`
- Ping a host a specific number of times:
`ping -c {{count}} "{{host}}"`
- Ping a host, specifying the interval in seconds between requests (default is 1 second):
`ping -i {{seconds}} "{{host}}"`
- Ping a host without trying to lookup symbolic names for addresses:
`ping -n "{{host}}"`
- Ping a host and ring the bell when a packet is received (if your terminal supports it):
`ping -a "{{host}}"`
- Ping a host and prints the time a packet was received (this option is an Apple addition):
`ping --apple-time "{{host}}"`
