Things I've found useful

I never remember how to make Solaris ping show the time of each ping, like GNU Ping does, without any arguments the output is like:

% ping foo
foo is alive
%

If you want to see the time of each ping, use -s which makes it more like the GNU Ping you find on linux:

% ping -s foo
PING foo: 56 data bytes
64 bytes from foo.somedomain.com (10.44.101.16): icmp_seq=0. time=0. ms
64 bytes from foo.somedomain.com (10.44.101.16): icmp_seq=1. time=0. ms
^C
----foo PING Statistics----
2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip (ms)  min/avg/max = 0/0/0
%

That is all.
