Ping Tools

Measure reachability and latency with ICMP or TCP probes.

ripnet/src/ping.c

ICMP Ping

Sends ICMP echo probes and prints packet-loss and latency results.

-i HOST
ripnet --ping HOST
ripnet --ping example.com
ripnet -i example.com --ping-count 5
Options
  • --ping-count N
Defaults
  • ping count: 4

TCP Ping

Checks TCP connectivity and timing when ICMP is not enough.

-J HOST -P PORT
ripnet --ping-tcp HOST --port PORT
ripnet --ping-tcp example.com --port 443
ripnet -J example.com -P 443
Defaults
  • port: 80
Notes
  • Use --port for the TCP port; HOST:PORT is not split by the CLI parser.
