Ping is a network utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network. It is used to verify that a host computer or device is operating correctly and reachable over the network. Ping uses the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Message to determine if a host is reachable. It also records the time it takes for the host to respond, allowing users to measure the round–trip time between two hosts.
