what is ping?

Answer Posted / ravi

Ping is a program that sends a series of packets over a
network or the Internet to a specific computer in order to
generate a response from that computer. The other computer
responds with an acknowledgment that it received the
packets. Ping was created to verify whether a specific
computer on a network or the Internet exists, and is connected.
