How did you solve it? I know the ping-options. But I think you can not set the repeat-count endless? (not like ping -t on a PC)

Surprisingly, this works for me (in 4.2):
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 2000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 20000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 200000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 2000000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 20000000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 200000000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 2000000000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 20000000000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 200000000000000
 pigate # exec ping-options repeat-count 2000000000000000
And that resembles ' indefinitely' quite closely...
