Would like the ability to pass windows variables to ping sensors. In my case I want to set the source (-S IP address) on a probe with multiple IPs/NICs, but I could see where other users would want to use other variables such as size, don't fragment, etc..

I have written a EXE/Script type sensor batch which manually gives me the ability to do what I have asked. Maybe Paessler could modify it and streamline/standardize it? Note the ping command in the script, which can be modified just like any windows ping command:
