The network can be as -simple as a few computers connected in your home or office, or as complicated as a large -university network or even the entire Internet. When your computer is part of a network, -you have access to those systems either directly or through services like mail and the -web.</p> - -<p>There are a variety of networking programs that you can use. Some are handy for -performing diagnostics to see if everything is working properly. Others (like mail -readers and web browsers) are useful for getting your work done and staying in contact -with other people.</p> - -<div class="SECT1"> -<h1 class="SECT1"><a id="BASIC-NETWORK-COMMANDS-PING" -name="BASIC-NETWORK-COMMANDS-PING">13.1 <tt class="COMMAND">ping</tt></a></h1> - -<p><tt class="COMMAND">ping</tt>(8) sends an ICMP <var class="LITERAL">ECHO_REQUEST</var> -packet to the specified host. If the host responds, you get an ICMP packet back. Sound -strange? Well, you can “ping” an IP address to see if a machine is alive. If -there is no response, you know something is wrong. Here is an example conversation -between two Linux users:</p> - -<a id="AEN4428" name="AEN4428"></a> -<blockquote class="BLOCKQUOTE"> -<p class="LITERALLAYOUT"><span class="emphasis"><i class="EMPHASIS">User -A</i></span>: Loki's down again.<br /> -<span class="emphasis"><i class="EMPHASIS">User -B</i></span>: Are you sure?<br /> -<span class="emphasis"><i class="EMPHASIS">User -A</i></span>: Yeah, I tried pinging it, but there's no response.</p> -</blockquote> - -<p>It's instances like these that make <tt class="COMMAND">ping</tt> a very useful -day-to-day command. It provides a very quick way to see if a machine is up and connected -to the network. The basic syntax is:</p> - -<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%"> -<tr> -<td> -<pre class="SCREEN"> -<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">ping www.slackware.com</kbd> -</pre> -</td> -</tr> -</table> - -<p>There are, of course, several options that can be specified.
