RTT is stored into
$duration; if a packet was received,
$ret is true. Are you aware that you are using a programming language and can make the computer do things?
my $p = Net::Ping->new();
$p->hires();
my $received = 0;
for (1..4) { # 4 is the amount of packets transmitted
my ($ret, $duration, $ip) = $p->ping($host, 5.5);
$received++ if $ret;
printf "Your RTT is %.2f ms\n", $duration * 1000;
}
printf "Received %i packets\n", $received;
Throw in a
sleep 1; there somewhere if you want.
