Ping is a basic Internet program that allows a user to verify that a particular IP address exists and can accept requests. Ping is used diagnostically to ensure that a host computer the user is trying to reach is actually operating. Ping works by sending an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Request to a specified interface on the network and waiting for a reply. Ping can be used for troubleshooting to test connectivity and determine response time.
October 8, 2013 10:23:43 AM. Ping is actually the slang name for an ICMP echo request. The idea is to send out a packet that requests a reply from the destination and monitor how much time in millisecond(ms) it take to return to the sender. This does NOT effect speed, but can effect things like response time form sites and online games. A bad ping to game on depends on the ping you are used to.
