Ping Test

Ping Test helps you test icmp connectivity and latency, for routing analysis, ownership checks, and faster network troubleshooting.

Technical Analysis

What It Does

Ping Test sends ICMP echo requests to a host and measures response time, packet loss, and connectivity to diagnose network issues and measure latency.

Why It Matters

→Availability: Confirms host is online and reachable
→Latency: Measures network delay affecting user experience
→Packet Loss: Identifies network quality issues
→Troubleshooting: First step in diagnosing connectivity problems

How to Read Results

Time: Response time in milliseconds (lower is better)
<50ms: Excellent, <100ms: Good, <200ms: Acceptable, >200ms: Poor
Packet Loss: Percentage of packets that didn't return (0% is ideal)
Timeout: No response received - host may be offline or blocking ICMP
