# ping -c 3 amsterdam.voip.ms
PING amsterdam.voip.ms (37.58.88.242) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from f2.58.3a25.ip4.static.sl-reverse.com (37.58.88.242): icmp_seq=1 ttl=52 time=98.5 ms

--- amsterdam.voip.ms ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2001ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 89.827/93.439/98.558/3.720 ms

O que significa o "tempo 2001ms"? Não parece estar relacionado com os tempos reais de transmissão de pacotes.

    

Answer 1

A estatística time é o tempo total gasto no envio e recebimento de pacotes de eco, incluindo o atraso entre cada pacote:

$ time ping 127.0.0.1
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.049 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.039 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.039 ms
