HOWTO: Programmatically Use ICMP Echo Request and Reply (Ping) |
Q139459
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Win32 Software Development Kit (SDK), versions 3.5, 3.51, 4.0
SUMMARY
It is possible to write applications that programatically use the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request and reply (popularly known as "ping"). For more details, please look in the ICMP directory of the Win32 SDK compact disc.
Please note that this mechanism is temporary, so there is no section in the Win32 Help file that addresses it. This will be replaced in the future by more powerful mechanisms supported by Winsock 2.0.
