=head1 NAME
B<pping> - parallel ping the nodes.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<pping> [B<-i>|B<--interface> I<interfaces>] I<noderange>
B<pping> [B<-h>|B<--help>]
B<pping> {B<-v>|B<--version>}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<pping> is a utility used to ping a list of nodes in parallel.
B<pping> will return an unsorted list of nodes with a ping or noping status.
B<pping> front-ends nmap or fping if available.
This command does not support the xcatd client/server communication. It must be run on the management node.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 10
=item B<-i>|B<--interface> I<interfaces>
A comma separated list of network interface names that should be pinged instead of the interface represented by the nodename/hostname.
The following name resolution convention is assumed: an interface is reachable by the hostname <nodename>-<interface>. For example,
the ib2 interface on node3 has a hostname of node3-ib2.
If more than one interface is specified, each interface will be combined with the nodenames as described above and will be pinged in turn.
=item B<-h>|B<--help>
Show usage information.
=item B<-v>|B<--version>
