ping -n 8 destination
Session Layer traced lost Packets.
A ping command is to checks whether the client can send or receive packets . A Ping Flood can be defined as an attempt by an attacker on a high bandwidth connection . It is to saturate a network with packets in order to slow the traffic .
At which layer lost packets are traced?
For a Microsoft Windows computer: ping -n 9 For a Linux computer: ping -c 9
Ping
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 2, Lost = 2 (50% loss)
in command prompt ping -L 600 "internet address"
Apparently since lost packets are always there once this error code is on your computer, it holds bearing in your PING command. Avoid using the PING command if you can not identify whether it is physical trouble or a virus is causing files to go corrupt thus the error code 0xc000000f!
A ping command is used to check whether the host is alive or not. A ping command is used when you want to check if the host can send or receive packets. The protocol that is responsible for Ping command is ICMP.
Ping is a program that sends a series of packets over a network or the Internet to a specific computer in order to generate a response from that computer. The other computer responds with an acknowledgment that it received the packets. Ping was created to verify whether a specific computer on a network or the Internet exists, and is connected. Some have claimed that the word "ping" is actually an acronym for "Packet Internet (or Inter-Network) Groper", deliberately contrived to play on the fact that pinging with a computer is similar to what submariners do with sonar. Both the computer and the submarine's sonar send out a "ping", in the form of either a series of packets or a brief burst of sound. The ping "bounces" off the target and then returns to let you know the target is there. Ping is both a noun and a verb, e.g., "Ping that computer", or "the router didn't return a ping". Ping is built into almost every network-capable operating system. It is often believed that "Ping" is an abbreviation for Packet Internet Groper, but Ping's author has stated that the names comes from the sound that a sonar makes.
Pinging is to determine and diagnose the quality of your internet connection. It's a tool to send out packets of data to a host (the IP OR web address) and wait for the traffic to return. The results of the ping will inform you how many packets were sent, were received, and if any, were lost, and the time it took for the round trip in milliseconds.Anyone can conduct a ping and sometimes it's fun. Just click the start menu, type CMD, then type Ping www.Google.comthe results will appear in a second or so.You can compare it to a submarine pinging for nearby ships - in fact that's where the term came from! :-)
