Puppet users - May 2012 - Puppet kick --ping retrieves and applies the catalog on the agent host!!

When I do puppet kick --ping  to puppet agent on some host, agent retrieves
the catalog from master and applies it locally.. is it the intended
behavior for --ping option.  Man page says it just does ICMP echo on agent
port.

Pl. help if you have more insight.. may be I am missing something..

Appreciate and thanks in advance..
