### Device dependencies
The ping.php script respects device dependencies, but the main poller does not (for technical reasons).
However, using this script does not disable the icmp check in the poller and a child may be reported as
down before the parent.
### Settings
ping.php uses much the same settings as the poller fping with one exception: retries is used instead of count.
ping.php does not measure loss and avg response time, only up/down, so once a device responds it stops pinging it.
```
$config['fping_options']['retries'] = 2;
$config['fping_options']['timeout'] = 500;
$config['fping_options']['interval'] = 500;
```
