/* 
 *  Interval is the minimum amount of time between sending a ping packet to 
 *  any host.
 * 
 *  Perhost_interval is the minimum amount of time between sending a ping 
 *  packet to a particular responding host (when count is > 1)
 * 
 *  Timeout  is the initial amount of time between sending a ping packet to
 *  a particular non-responding host.
 * 
 *  Retry is the number of ping packets to send to a non-responding host
 *  before giving up (in is-it-alive mode).
 * 
 *  Backoff factor is how much longer to wait on successive retries.
