Most Linux systems use a unique Identifier for every ping process, and Sequence number is an increasing number within that process. Windows uses a fixed Identifier, which varies between Windows versions, and a Sequence number that is only reset at boot time. The Echo Reply is returned as:
Identifier and Sequence number can be used by the client to match the reply with the request that caused the reply. Originate timestamp is the time the sender last touched the message before sending it. Receive timestamp is the time the echoer first touched it on receipt. Transmit timestamp is the time the echoer last touched the message on ...
The round-trip time or ping time is the time from the start of the transmission from the sending node until a response (for example an ACK packet or ping ICMP response) is received at the same node. It is affected by packet delivery time as well as the data processing delay , which depends on the load on the responding node.
Paping (pronounced pah ping) is a computer network administration utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network and to measure the time it takes to connect to a specified port. The name is a play on the word ping, another computer network administration utility.
The checksum calculation is defined as follows: [5] The checksum field is the 16 bit one's complement of the one's complement sum of all 16 bit words in the header. For purposes of computing the checksum, the value of the checksum field is zero.
PingER, an acronym for Ping End-to-end Reporting, measures round-trip travel time of a packet of data between two nodes on the Internet.The PingER' Project uses a simple tool—the ping command—to get valuable insights into performance of the Internet backbone.
So, if we simply re-cast sequence numbers as 2's complement integers and allow there to be one more sequence number considered "less than" than there are sequence numbers considered "greater than", we should be able to use simple signed arithmetic comparisons instead of the logically incomplete formula proposed by the RFC.
Cisco's implementation of traceroute also uses a sequence of UDP datagrams, each with incrementing TTL values, to an invalid port number at the remote host; by default, UDP port 33434 is used. An extended version of this command (known as the extended traceroute command) can change the destination port number used by the UDP probe messages. [13]
