15.3 PING TESTS
Ping is a computer network administration utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol
(IP) network and to measure the round-trip time for messages sent from the originating host to a destination
computer. The name comes from active sonar terminology.
1. Ping operates by sending Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request packets to the target
host and waiting for an ICMP response. In the process it measures the time from transmission to reception
and records any packet loss. The results of the test are printed in form of a statistical summary of the
response packets received, including the minimum, maximum, and the mean round-trip times.
