We're being caught up in some sort of peering dispute between Level 3 and
Google (in the Dallas area), and we've fielded several calls from larger
customers complaining of 40-50% packet loss (to 8.8.8.8) when there appears
to be no actual service impacting loss.
We currently suggest customers use a Linux server to ping against, or
another public host.
Ideally we'd like to use a hardware based ICMP system for customer use -
Accedian NIDs are good at this (exceptionally low jitter) accept they
throttle at 500 pings per second.

Are there any products you're using which are dedicated to responding to
customer facing pings?
