A tool to quickly ping N number of hosts to determine their reachability
without flooding the network.

     fping is different from ping in that you can specify any number of
	 hosts on the command line, or specify a file containing the lists
	 of hosts to ping. Instead of trying one host until it timeouts or
	 replies, fping will send out a ping packet and move on to the next
	 host in a round-robin fashion. If a host replies, it is noted and
	 removed from the list of hosts to check. If a host does not respond
	 within a certain time limit and/or retry limit it will be considered
	 unreachable. 

     Unlike ping, fping is meant to be used in scripts and its
     output is easy to parse.
     This is an IPv6 only version.

[NEW PORT] net/fping+ipv6: Quickly ping N hosts w/o flooding the
network - IPv6 version

        This is an IPv6 only version of fping. The fping with IPv6 patch cannot
handle
        IPv4 ping, therefore I think it is better to have two distinct port:
        fping - IPv4 only
        fping+ipv6 - IPv6 only

        Maintainer of fping also copied. He can maintain both port if he agrees.
