Hello list,

Can we please get a timeout option for ping6?

There is a PR open for this:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=183787

There is also a patch for ping6 by hrs@ in this other PR:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=151023

I was hoping that someone(tm) would take the patch or something similar
and commit it :)


Thanks!
