Re: Difference between ICMP Echo and UDP Echo.

To add to great links that Garry already posted, Anthony Sequeira
started a series of articles focusing on IP SLA on IPexpert's blog.
You may want to check them out as a quick introduction to the
technology and differences between various options. As the time goes
on, these articles will get more detailed. It should give you a great
overview - http://blog.ipexpert.com is the address.
