=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This module contains methods to test the reachability of remote
|
|
hosts on a network. A ping object is first created with optional
|
|
parameters, a variable number of hosts may be pinged multiple
|
|
times and then the connection is closed.
|
|
|
|
You may choose one of three different protocols to use for the
|
|
ping. The "udp" protocol is the default. Note that a live remote host
|
|
may still fail to be pingable by one or more of these protocols. For
|
|
example, www.microsoft.com is generally alive but not pingable.
|
|
|
|
With the "tcp" protocol the ping() method attempts to establish a
|
|
connection to the remote host's echo port. If the connection is
|
|
successfully established, the remote host is considered reachable. No
|
|
data is actually echoed. This protocol does not require any special
|
|
privileges but has higher overhead than the other two protocols.
|
|
|
|
Specifying the "udp" protocol causes the ping() method to send a udp
|
|
packet to the remote host's echo port. If the echoed packet is
|
|
received from the remote host and the received packet contains the
|
|
same data as the packet that was sent, the remote host is considered
|
|
reachable. This protocol does not require any special privileges.
|
|
|
|
It should be borne in mind that, for both tcp and udp ping, a host
|
|
will be reported as unreachable if it is not running the
|
|
appropriate echo service. For Unix-like systems see L<inetd(8)> for
|
|
more information.
|
|
|
|
If the "icmp" protocol is specified, the ping() method sends an icmp
|
|
echo message to the remote host, which is what the UNIX ping program
|
|
does. If the echoed message is received from the remote host and
|
|
the echoed information is correct, the remote host is considered
|
|
reachable. Specifying the "icmp" protocol requires that the program
|
|
be run as root or that the program be setuid to root.

|
|
|
|
Create a new ping object. All of the parameters are optional. $proto
|
|
specifies the protocol to use when doing a ping. The current choices
|
|
are "tcp", "udp" or "icmp". The default is "udp".
|
|
|
|
If a default timeout ($def_timeout) in seconds is provided, it is used
|
|
when a timeout is not given to the ping() method (below). The timeout
|
|
must be greater than 0 and the default, if not specified, is 5 seconds.
|
|
|
|
If the number of data bytes ($bytes) is given, that many data bytes
|
|
are included in the ping packet sent to the remote host. The number of
|
|
data bytes is ignored if the protocol is "tcp". The minimum (and
|
|
default) number of data bytes is 1 if the protocol is "udp" and 0
|
|
otherwise. The maximum number of data bytes that can be specified is
|
|
1024.

=item $p->ping($host [, $timeout]);
|
|
|
|
Ping the remote host and wait for a response. $host can be either the
|
|
hostname or the IP number of the remote host. The optional timeout
|
|
must be greater than 0 seconds and defaults to whatever was specified
|
|
when the ping object was created. If the hostname cannot be found or
|
|
there is a problem with the IP number, undef is returned. Otherwise,
|
|
1 is returned if the host is reachable and 0 if it is not. For all
|
|
practical purposes, undef and 0 and can be treated as the same case.
|
|
|
|
=item $p->close();
|
|
|
|
Close the network connection for this ping object. The network
|
|
connection is also closed by "undef $p". The network connection is
|
|
automatically closed if the ping object goes out of scope (e.g. $p is
|
|
local to a subroutine and you leave the subroutine).
|
|
|
|
=item pingecho($host [, $timeout]);
|
|
|
|
To provide backward compatibility with the previous version of
|
|
Net::Ping, a pingecho() subroutine is available with the same
|
|
functionality as before. pingecho() uses the tcp protocol. The
|
|
return values and parameters are the same as described for the ping()
|
|
method. This subroutine is obsolete and may be removed in a future
|
|
version of Net::Ping.

=head1 WARNING
|
|
|
|
pingecho() or a ping object with the tcp protocol use alarm() to
|
|
implement the timeout. So, don't use alarm() in your program while
|
|
you are using pingecho() or a ping object with the tcp protocol. The
|
|
udp and icmp protocols do not use alarm() to implement the timeout.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
There will be less network overhead (and some efficiency in your
|
|
program) if you specify either the udp or the icmp protocol. The tcp
|
|
protocol will generate 2.5 times or more traffic for each ping than
|
|
either udp or icmp. If many hosts are pinged frequently, you may wish
|
|
to implement a small wait (e.g. 25ms or more) between each ping to
|
|
avoid flooding your network with packets.
|
|
|
|
The icmp protocol requires that the program be run as root or that it
|
|
be setuid to root. The tcp and udp protocols do not require special
|
|
privileges, but not all network devices implement the echo protocol
|
|
for tcp or udp.
|
|
|
|
Local hosts should normally respond to pings within milliseconds.
|
|
However, on a very congested network it may take up to 3 seconds or
|
|
longer to receive an echo packet from the remote host. If the timeout
|
|
is set too low under these conditions, it will appear that the remote
|
|
host is not reachable (which is almost the truth).
|
|
|
|
Reachability doesn't necessarily mean that the remote host is actually
|
|
functioning beyond its ability to echo packets.
|
|
|
|
Because of a lack of anything better, this module uses its own
|
|
routines to pack and unpack ICMP packets. It would be better for a
|
|
separate module to be written which understands all of the different
|
|
kinds of ICMP packets.
