Re: nping doesn't recognise --icmp-code parameter

Hi Simon,

Thanks for contacting us. I think this is just a typo in your command. It
looks like some copy&paste error introduced a weird hyphen there. If you
look closely, it says "–-icmp-code" but it should say "--icmp-code". If you
correct that, it will work ;)

Please let me know if you copied that from some documentation that we need
to update. Thanks again. Best regards,

Luis MartinGarcia.
