ping.py

ping.py allows to do an ICMP ping to an IPv4 address from the specified IPv4 interface. Sufficient rights are needed on the machine to open a raw socket.

Specificities

This script requires the following positional commands line arguments to work:

  • required positional argument 1: <src ip>: the IPv4 address of the interface to use to send the ping request.

  • required positional argument 2: <dst ip>: the IPv4 address of the target machine to ping.

# Send ping requests from "192.168.10.15" to "192.168.10.16"
sudo ping.py "192.168.10.15" "192.168.10.16"
