Pivo.Ping is a .NET software that enables easy sending of Ping/ICMP packets to test remote server, host or device availability. Programmatically verify network devices with ease.
One of the major benefits of Pivo.Ping is its full support for the RFC 792 standard. This ensures that you're using a reliable protocol and can trust the results of your pings.
As a server component, Pivo.Ping requires the Microsoft .NET runtime to function properly. This allows you to programatically ping hosts on a network from a variety of .NET environments, including ASP.NET, winforms, console applications, and web services.
By using the 'Ping' technique, Pivo.Ping sends ICMP packets to remote hosts and receives a response if the host is up and supports ICMP. This simple and effective mechanism ensures that you have the feedback necessary to troubleshoot any communication problems in your networked environment.
Pivo.Ping is a low-overhead, highly optimized assembly that requires minimal resources to operate. Any system that can support the Microsoft.NET framework will be able to use Pivo.Ping. Additionally, you can use Pivo.Ping in any environment that supports .NET, including winforms, ASP.NET, console applications, components, or web services.
In testing the connectivity of a remote host, Pivo.Ping can be used programmatically. Here are two examples for using Pivo.Ping from both C# and Visual Basic.
Example in C#:
```
private void Page_Load (object sender, System.EventArgs e) {
if (Page.IsPostBack) {
Pivo.Ping.Icmp icmp = new Pivo.Ping.Icmp;
for (int i=0; i<4; i++) {
Console.WriteLine(icmp.Ping().TotalMilliseconds);
}
}
}
```
Overall, Pivo.Ping is an essential tool for any .NET developer who needs to verify the availability of remote hosts quickly and easily. So, it can be a great addition in your software stack.
