Tags socket error
Ping is a tool used to detect the network connection speed. It establishes a socket connection between the local host and the remote host name and sends an ICMP packet to it, then the remote host responds and sends back a data packet. By calculating the time interval between the sent and received data packets, we can determine the connection speed.

Use Ping <Hostname> Host Name
[/R] The optional attribute determines whether to continuously ping the remote host.

The following code is used:
