Ping that doesn't quit after four.

Networking tip

Run ping -t followed by the host to keep pinging until you stop it, which is handy while you reseat a cable or reboot a switch. Press Ctrl + Break to see the stats so far without stopping.

Ctrl + Break only shows stats; it keeps pinging. Ctrl + C is what ends it.
