You can specify the timeout.
Take a DOS Prompt as an example:
C:\WINDOWS\Desktop>ping /?
Usage: ping [-t] [-a] [-n count] [-l size] [-f] [-i TTL] [-v TOS]
[-r count] [-s count] [[-j host-list] | [-k host-list]]
[-w timeout] destination-list
Options:
-t Ping the specified host until stopped.
To see statistics and continue - type Control-Break;
To stop - type Control-C.
-a Resolve addresses to hostnames.
-n count Number of echo requests to send.
-l size Send buffer size.
-f Set Don't Fragment flag in packet.
-i TTL Time To Live.
-v TOS Type Of Service.
-r count Record route for count hops.
-s count Timestamp for count hops.
-j host-list Loose source route along host-list.
-k host-list Strict source route along host-list.
-w timeout Timeout in milliseconds to wait for each reply.
C:\WINDOWS\Desktop>ping 200.1.2.3 -w 15000
Pinging 200.1.2.3 with 32 bytes of data:

Subject: Ping times? Am i missing something [7:41144]
The other day while troubleshooting an issue, I saw some pings from out
Tivoli Netview box and it was showing ping times in the 15,000+ ms range. Is
this possible? I though there was a limit on this particular field in the
head. If an of our frame-format experts (Priscilla?) or sniffer gurus
(again... Priscilla?), could point me someone I'd appreciate it. Thanks a
bunch!
