Best Answer

in windows if you ping an ip address, it will send 4 pings. Using -n you can vary the number of pings the command will send.

For example

Ping www.Google.com

will result in 4 replys

but,

ping www.google.com -n 5

will result in 5 replys.

Ping /? will give you all the commands related to ping.
