ICMP is part of the Internet protocol suite as defined in RFC 792. ICMP messages are typically used for diagnostic or control purposes or generated in response to errors in IP operations (as specified in RFC 1122). ICMP errors are directed to the source IP address of the originating packet. [3]
ping is a computer network administration software utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network. It is available for virtually all operating systems that have networking capability, including most embedded network administration software.

In this case, protocol can be ip, ipv6, icmp, icmpv6, igmp, udp, tcp, or rawip. No No Yes -r: Displays the contents of the IP routing table. (This is equivalent to the route print command under Windows.) Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes -s: Displays statistics by protocol. By default, statistics are shown for the TCP, UDP, ICMP, and IP ...
Traceroute can help identify incorrect routing table definitions or firewalls that may be blocking ICMP traffic, or high port UDP in Unix ping, to a site. [clarify] A correct traceroute response does not guarantee connectivity for applications as a firewall may permit ICMP packets but not permit packets of other protocols.
BWPing is a tool to measure bandwidth and response times between two hosts using Internet Control Message Protocol echo request/echo reply mechanism. [1] It does not require any special software on the remote host.
The ICMP Router Advertisement message is sent by a router on the local area network to announce its IP address as available for routing. When a host boots up, it sends solicitation messages to IP multicast address 224.0.0.2. [4] In response, one or more routers may send advertisement messages.
On various routers, this TCP or UDP port 9 for the Discard Protocol (or port 7 for the Echo Protocol relaying ICMP datagrams) is also used by default as a proxy to relay Wake-on-LAN (WOL) magic packets from the Internet to hosts on the local network in order to wake them up remotely (these hosts must also have their network adapter configured ...
