Windows Server® 2008 offers

ping -v TOS         Type Of Service (IPv4-only)

Trying to figure out what they mean I came that far that this has to do with IPv4's "Type of Service" Field – and that the use of this field was completely redefined and renamed at least one time and that it was/is most widely used experimentally (source → https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_of_service).

Question: What TOS values can be defined for ping -v TOS in Windows Server® 2008?

ping -v TOS … Beginning in Windows 7, this option no longer functions but still exists for compatibility reasons (source: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/commandlinereference/p/ping-command.htm).

Both Microsoft Windows 7 and Server 2008 are based upon NT 6, which seems to explain this.


Still I wonder why on a site from 2012 on ping this issue from 2007 onwards isn't mentioned (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff961503.aspx)
