HP-UX and RHEL ping difference

Question

I have these two commands for different environments..

for HP-UX: "ping someaddress 10" 
for RHEL: "ping someaddress -c 10"

Im Porting an application from HP-UX to RHEL and i cant tell if these two commands have same results since, I dont have a HP-UX system.

I have read the HP-UX manual ( http://bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01922497/c01922497.pdf ) but still it doesn't help since no options were specified in the command.

Any idea?

You can get access to a HP-UX shell via the HP Alliance program. Registration is required. This might help you to test your scripts.
