The Ping Utility
Overview Ping is a TCP/IP utility for testing a given IP address. The address is checked to see
if a device exists for it. If the address exists, the Ping is successful and a round trip
time (ms) is returned. If the ping fails, an error response will be given. This will help
diagnose problems with the TCP/IP communications as well as determining a
devices existence. Ping options are saved to the ProWORX .INI file.
