Hi,

from time to time the ping test report failure with "1 packet loss".

This is a false positive and is due to the fact that we end the ping test by a sigterm which isn't handled in any way by the ping utility[1].

We need either
 1. to better handle the termination of the ping command
 2. ignore failure when we have exactly "1 packet loss".

1 seems hard to handle correctly and 2 should be enough, ie it won't hide true error[2]

[2] that's really a "personal" assumption based on experience.
