      Wondering if there is any threshold for the multi wan failover detection using ICMP?

      Problem I am having is that ICMP, being unreliable in nature, sometimes drops one which seems to trigger the link to be down even when it is not. Wondering if there is a way, or plans, to poll using a a number of ICMP ping at once and mark down if they all fail instead of just 1 and 1 fail.
