Expected handling of RedirectReceivedError #71

Description

@vectronic

Hello,

I'm using this module for a Homekit plugin here: https://github.com/vectronic/homebridge-ping-hosts

A user has reported here that I have an issue with pinging hosts on subnets: vectronic/homebridge-ping-hosts#3

I realise after some vain attempts to resolve that I'm a bit clueless on the behaviour of ICMP ping and multiple routers and ICMP redirects and also the expected behaviour of node-net-ping.

Could you tell me what is the expected behaviour once a RedirectReceivedError has been received? Should there also be another successful response from the successfully redirect ICMP ping request?

Is there something my consuming module should be doing when a RedirectReceivedError is received?

Thanks.
