On this page you can
ping remote
domain or
hostname or
IP.
Domain/hostname/IP address ping going with 8 packages starting from current ping server, after end displaying info.
The ping program is based on Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), part of the TCP/IP protocol. ICMP was designed to pass information about network performance between network devices and exchange error messages, including query/response mechanism.
The operation of ping relies on two specific ICMP messages, ECHO_REQUEST and ECHO_REPLY, but it may response to ICMP messages other than ECHO_REPLY when appropriate. In theory, all TCP/IP-based network equipment should respond to an ECHO_REQUEST by returning the packet to the source, but it's working not in all cases.
Ping - it's one of the best way to check what's going in channel to server, for example when going lags - answer time is to long or not stable.
In my case - was troubles with channel to some service, and when i'm execute this tool, i'm find that it's drops of packages.
Also answer time is equal
connection speed to this server, as usual - but not always.
this page in stand alone mode.
Notice: Some
remote servers not support ping, thats why ping of some online server (ping some
remote ip address) can be fail (it's not issue of our service).
