+fping (send ICMP ECHO_REQUEST packets to network hosts)
+
+fping is a program to send ICMP echo probes to network hosts, similar to ping,
+but much better performing when pinging multiple hosts.
+
+NOTE: Old fping and fping6 packages are no longer needed, and should probably
+be removed before installing this one.
