A. B. C. D.

C

The command "ping 172.19.102.2 count 5" is used to send ICMP echo requests to the IP address 172.19.102.2, with a specific count of 5.

The correct answer is C. ICMP echo requests are sent to 172.19.102.2 five times. This means that the command will send 5 ICMP echo requests to the destination IP address (172.19.102.2) and then stop.

Option A is incorrect because the interval between the packets is not specified. The default interval is one second, not five milliseconds.

Option B is incorrect because the ping command will stop after sending the specified number of packets (in this case, five).

Option D is incorrect because there is no specific time limit on how long the ping command will continue to send ICMP echo requests. The command will only send five packets, and then stop.

In summary, the "ping 172.19.102.2 count 5" command will send five ICMP echo requests to the IP address 172.19.102.2, and then stop.
