Dirk,

I don't have a cisco router to test against. However, is it possible that the ping on that device doesn't have a limit of tries?

I.e. ping some_host on linux will cause it to ping indefinitely unless specified as ping some_host -c count_number . The later one would only ping as many times as count_number is set.

Can you try a similiar thing?

I tried the same on SSH1 server, and it works like a charm.

ping ip 1.2.3.4
will cause the Cisco to send 5 frames that's all


See example:
[code]csc4500#ping ip 172.22.150.33

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.22.150.33, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms
