Documentation
I wrote this kind of tool in several languages: Python, Ruby, elixer and also in Google Go, because I was looking for a tool that checks my own network.
When running such a tool sequentially then I must wait for all time outs and that takes time. So the idea was: Let them run in parallel. Doing so I only have to wait for one time out and not all the others.
Since the fping tool is available I found no need to invent it by myself.
Added flag retry to adjust fping with more retries if necessary
Slice
Added duration
