Why running 2 pings at a time
Ronja electronics could have a fault causing crosstalk between the
directions which would cause packetloss that would happen only if
both directions are loaded simultaneously. We excersise this condition
by
running two instances of ronjaping simultaneously.

Running Ronjaping
Run two instances of ronjaping simultaneously in different xterms
or consoles. Replace <other side> with IP address or hostname.
ronjaping -c -l 1472 <other side>
Leave it running long enough. The lower the expected packetloss is the longer you have
to run it. |
|
Read the packetloss Press ctrl-c in the instance started
later. ronjaping prints out the packetloss. The precision depends on how long
it has been running. |
