NetPing

Network diagnostic tool: ping hosts, scan ports, traceroute, DNS lookup, latency measurement, and HTTP checks — all in one script.

Commands

Command Description
netping ping <host> [count] Ping a host (default: 4 packets)
netping ports <host> <port1,port2,...> Check if TCP ports are open
netping trace <host> Traceroute to host
netping dns <domain> DNS lookup (A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT records)
netping latency <host> Measure average latency (5 pings with stats)
netping http <url> Check HTTP status and response timing
netping sweep <subnet> Quick ping sweep of a /24 subnet
netping version Show version

Examples

netping ping google.com         # → ping with 4 packets
netping ping 8.8.8.8 10         # → ping with 10 packets
netping ports example.com 80,443,8080  # → check 3 ports
netping trace cloudflare.com    # → traceroute
netping dns github.com          # → A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT records
netping latency 1.1.1.1         # → avg latency over 5 pings
netping http https://example.com # → HTTP status + TTFB
netping sweep 192.168.1.0/24    # → find alive hosts

Requirements

  • ping (standard)
  • dig or nslookup (for DNS lookups)
  • traceroute or tracepath (for trace, optional — falls back to ping TTL)
  • curl (for HTTP checks)
  • Bash /dev/tcp (for port scanning — built into bash)
