al@19606 | 1 liboping – Library to ping IPv4 and IPv6 hosts in parallel |
al@19606 | 2 |
al@19606 | 3 liboping was inspired by ping, libping and fping: It differs from these |
al@19606 | 4 existing solutions in that it can “ping” multiple hosts in parallel using IPv4 |
al@19606 | 5 or IPv6 transparently. Other design principles were an object oriented |
al@19606 | 6 interface, simplicity and extensibility. |
al@19606 | 7 |
al@19606 | 8 On top of liboping two command line applications have been built. “oping” is a |
al@19606 | 9 drop-in replacement for ping(1) with very similar output. “noping” is an |
al@19606 | 10 ncurses-based application which displays statistics while pinging and |
al@19606 | 11 highlights aberrant round-trip times. |
