impacket-ping [-h] [-src IP] target

impacket-ping is a simple ICMP ping implementation using raw sockets via the Impacket library. It sends ICMP echo request packets to the specified target and reports responses.
Unlike the standard ping utility, this implementation uses Impacket's raw socket capabilities, which can be useful in environments where the standard ping may be restricted or when integration with other Impacket tools is desired.

-src IP

Source IP address to use for the ping packets

Requires root/administrator privileges to create raw sockets. May be blocked by firewalls that filter ICMP traffic. For most use cases, the standard ping command is more feature-rich.

Part of the Impacket library by SecureAuth. Included as a basic example of using Impacket's network protocol implementations for raw socket operations.
