The Ping command is one of the most commonly used utilities on the Internet by people for conducting the most basic network test: can your computer reach another computer on the network, and if so how long does it take? It sends request to networked computer and waits for response. It’s easy to ping single PC but not so in the case when you ping dozens or hundreds of them.Network scanners are the same ping command deep inside, which are equipped with graphical interface made for targeting and displaying responses of multiply computers in one sweep.
