ping
(1983) command is available in almost all operating systems. The command-line options of the ping utility and its output vary between the numerous implementations. Options may include among others:
- Count of tests: (
-c
)[1] (Linux and macOS), (-n
Windows) - Size of the payload
- Limits for the number of network hops (
TTL
) that probes traverse
Timing options:
- Timeout for exiting:
-t
(macOS), Linux not implemented. - Interval between the requests
-i
(macOS) - Time to wait for a response (
-W
) miliseconds for macOS and seconds for Linux
Output format:
- Include timestamp on each line: Linux (
-D
)
