Ping object allows to test network connectivity with remote host, by sending echo ICMP packet

Methods:

object.Send([HostName As String], [Timeout As Long], [PacketSize As Long]) Send ICMP request to remote host

object.Sleep(n As Long) Suspend program execution for a specified length of time, in milliseconds

Properties:

object.HostName Remote host name or IP address

object.IP Replying (remote) host IP address

object.PacketSize Size of the ICMP request, in bytes

object.RoundTripTime Time taken by ICMP request to reach remote host and return, in milliseconds

object.Status Status of ICMP request

object.Timeout Time to wait for replies, in milliseconds

object.TTL Time to live

Traceroute object allows to trace the network path to remote host

Methods:

object.Send([HostName As String], [Timeout As Long], [PacketSize As Long], [Hop As Long]) Send ICMP request to remote host

object.Sleep(n As Long) Suspend program execution for a specified length of time, in milliseconds

Properties:

object.Hop Hop number in a trace

object.HopIP IP at specified hop

object.HostName Remote host name or IP address

object.IP Replying (remote) host IP address

object.PacketSize Size of the ICMP request, in bytes

object.RoundTripTime Time taken by ICMP request to reach remote host and return, in milliseconds

object.Status Status of ICMP request

object.Timeout Time to wait for replies, in milliseconds

object.TTL Time to live
