Pinger

Pinger is a lightweight, high-performance network utility written in Go. It enables users to send ICMP echo requests (pings) to specified hosts, facilitating network diagnostics and monitoring.

Features

  • Send ICMP echo requests to specified hosts.
  • Measure round-trip time (RTT) for each ping.
  • Support for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
  • Configurable number of ping attempts and intervals.
  • Lightweight and efficient, suitable for scripting and automation.

Installation

Prerequisites

  • Go (version 1.20 or later) installed on your system.
  • make

Steps

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/pnx/pinger.git
cd pinger
  1. Build the application:
make

Usage

See ./pinger -h

Example

./pinger --udp -t 30s example.com

This command sends UDP echo requests to example.com, stopping after 30 seconds

./pinger -c 8 -i 1s example.com

This command sends 8 ICMP echo requests to example.com, with a 1-second interval between pings.
