How to specify number of packets to ping?

I'm using POE::Component::Client::Ping to ping multiple hosts with this example.

As I understand this sends one request to host. Is it possible to specify number of packets to ping like in ping -c 4 HOST?

No, POE::Component::Client::Ping doesn't implement repetition logic. It just pings. I wrote it such that control of how it pings is almost entirely in your hands.

Yes, it is possible to send a ping with a non-standard payload size. Details here :
