The hostname (the name of the computer) can be found in most Linux distributions by issuing the hostname command without arguments. Alternatively, you can view the contents of /etc/hosts. The hostname will be listed next to the IP address 127.0.1.1.
To ping a host 1,000 times, you can use the command line in your operating system. On Windows, open Command Prompt and type ping -n 1000 [hostname or IP address], replacing [hostname or IP address] with the target you want to ping. On Linux or macOS, use the command ping -c 1000 [hostname or IP address]. This will send 1,000 echo requests to the specified host.
