About Ping
Ping is a fundamental network diagnostic tool used to test the reachability of a host on an IP network and measure the round-trip time (RTT) for packets sent from the source to the destination. It operates by sending ICMP Echo Request packets and waiting for ICMP Echo Reply responses.
Key metrics explained:
• RTT (Round-Trip Time): The time it takes for a packet to travel to the destination and back, measured in milliseconds (ms). Lower is better.
• Packet Loss: The percentage of packets that didn't receive a reply. High packet loss indicates network issues.
• Jitter: The variation in RTT between consecutive packets. High jitter can affect real-time applications like VoIP or gaming.
