The right value check_ping command‏

[steve f]

The 5 ping value is written in the check as the default value. If you do not add any -p value, it pings the host 5x.  Just like if you do not add a -t value for a timeout for a check, it defaults to 10 seconds.

You can look at the source code for the check_ping here :
