After changing this to send_only, the ping tests have started to appear 
- yay :-)

Now looking at the box which is still on 3.4, it also has "receive_only 1"

It seems that there was a bug fix in 3.5, which changed the behaviour of 
"receive_only" and "send_only" to how they were originally intended to 
work; except that the GUI configuration of ping and traceroute tests 
hasn't been updated to match.

So I'd suggest that the GUI be changed to write "send_only" for bwping 
and bwtraceroute tests. Ideally, when a system is upgraded from 3.4 to 
3.5, the existing configuration would also be updated automatically.
