RE: Generating enough pings to make dialer load threshold kick

You could telnet 4 times to the router and send ping of 1500 bytes in each
telnet session. Then on the 5th telnet session you could monitor the backup,

Thanks Dan for the response.

However, I specifically want to test with a high threshold and want to know
what values for ping will generate enough traffic to exceed that threshold
regardless of what the threshold is 75%, 80%, 90%.

Anyway to do that?

Also, is there any point in setting the packet size to something greater
than 1500 bytes?

Thanks
