ping -i 2 <IP>

[tk1]

Hello,

Is there a way, preferably natively within AutoIt, to replicate:

ping -i 2 <nearby_IP>

The ping() function only has an option to set the timeout, but I want to set the TTL to 2 instead.

 

Thanks,

I think you can do that using WMI with Win32_PingStatus.

From this function, you will have to add an option for TTL :

Why not use the Ping function in AutoIT.

if Ping($systemname)>0 Then
            ;Logging($iCount & $systemname)
            return True
Else
            $iCount = $iCount + 1
            Sleep(20000)
EndIf

Because as I mentioned, it only has a timeout, which is not the same thing as TTL.

Normally, I do use AutoIt's ping function, but in this case it's lacking functionality I need.

 

Thanks,
