PING issue with 3170

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Nothing happens after this.....

I am a little confused by the last two lines! Any idea what is going on?

There's been some discussion about this, and a fix doesn't seem too far away. See this topic: viewtopic.php?f=40&t=20158&p=162042#p162042
