'''-c1 (/ -n 1)''' In these examples, we've only used a count of one ping using the -c option or -n on Windows.

'''-M do (/ -f) / -D''' Means don't fragment the ping packet

''' -s 1472 (/ -l 1472)''' The option for payload size is -s, or -l on Windows. When setting size in ping, the size printed is the payload size - not the full packet size. '''The full packet size is''' <syntaxhighlight inline> payload (1472) + IP header (20) + ICMP header (8) </syntaxhighlight>, so this is 1500 in total!
