Hi there.

I got strange WARNING status on check_ping, following.

[root at localhost libexec]# ./check_ping -H A.B.C.D  -w 1000,100% -c
1000,100% -t 10 -p 5 -vvv
CMD: /bin/ping -n -U -w 10 -c 5 A.B.C.D
Output: PING A.B.C.D  (A.B.C.D ) 56(84) bytes of data.
Output: 64 bytes from A.B.C.D : icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.655 ms
Output: 64 bytes from A.B.C.D : icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.515 ms
Output:
Output: --- A.B.C.D  ping statistics ---

Output: rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.515/0.585/0.655/0.070 ms
PING WARNING - Packet loss = 80%, RTA = 0.58
ms|rta=0.585000ms;1000.000000;1000.000000;0.000000 pl=80%;100;100;0
1000.000000:100% 1000.000000:100%

Check_ping result is WARNING on RTA=0.58 and loss = 80%. But
WARNING and CRITICAL threshold is 1000ms or 100% both.

Why detect warning state ?

Thanks.
