1 liboping – Library to ping IPv4 and IPv6 hosts in parallel
3 liboping was inspired by ping, libping and fping: It differs from these
4 existing solutions in that it can “ping” multiple hosts in parallel using IPv4
5 or IPv6 transparently. Other design principles were an object oriented
6 interface, simplicity and extensibility.
8 On top of liboping two command line applications have been built. “oping” is a
9 drop-in replacement for ping(1) with very similar output. “noping” is an
10 ncurses-based application which displays statistics while pinging and
11 highlights aberrant round-trip times.
13 Features
15 * Support for multiple hosts.
16 * Support for IPv4 and IPv6.
17 * Object oriented interface.
