TCP\IP protocol is run by ping i.e
Ping 132.125.12.1 -t
will ping the status of device whether healthy or unhealthy
The "ping" command is an ICMP (internet Control Management Protocol) control packet. Many websites disallow this type packet, so beware.

"Ping uses the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo function which is detailed in RFC 792"http://www.activexperts.com/activsocket/tutorials/ping/So the short answer is that it uses the ICMP protocol.
ping uses the ICMP protocol.
ICMP
Assuming IPv4 ICMP. Ping uses IP for transport. Ping in itself is an "Echo Request", which is a function of the ICMP protocol. The IP Packet will carry the ICMP protocol from end-to-end. ICMP has a protocol number of 1, so the "Protocol" field in the IPv4 header will contain "1" as a reference to the ICMP payload. For IPv6, ICMPv6 is used, and the transport will be IPv6.
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.
tcp/ip
Ping uses ICMP, and therefore resides at layer 3 (Network layer)
ICMP
TCP/ IP stands for transmission control protocol / Internet protocol suite. Ping is a command of command line interface . -t in TCP IP ping means to repeat the ping command continuously.It means to repeat the ping command continuously, until you interrupt with Ctrl-Break.It means to repeat the ping command continuously, until you interrupt with Ctrl-Break.It means to repeat the ping command continuously, until you interrupt with Ctrl-Break.It means to repeat the ping command continuously, until you interrupt with Ctrl-Break.
ICMP is the internet control access protocol . ICMP is the plrotocol that should be allowed when not able to ping a remote device residing behind a firewall. ICMP is the protocol of network layer.
Tracert uses ICMP, just like ping does.
You cannot ping specific ports as they are not designed to respond to this type of protocol. Each port can be checked for an open or close state.
