Ping Multiple Ips
Effortlessly test IP reachability with our "Ping Reachability Tool." Simplify network troubleshooting.
Pre-requisites :
The "Ping Reachability Tool" has the following prerequisites and dependencies:
1. Python: Ensure that Python is installed on your machine.
2. Operating System: The script works on both Windows and non-Windows platforms.
3. Python Libraries: The script relies on the following Python libraries:
- `platform`: This library is used to determine the operating system.
- `subprocess`: It is used to execute the ping command and capture the output.
- `ipaddress`: This library is used to validate and manipulate IP addresses and subnets.
- `time`: It is used to measure the elapsed time for execution.
- `threading`: This library enables the use of multiple threads for concurrent ping tests.
Make sure these prerequisites are met and the required libraries are installed before running the script.
Steps to use !
Download the file : Download the file and open it using any IDE (VSCode, Pycharm etc.)
Save the Code: Copy the entire code from above and save it as a text file with a .py extension (e.g., ping_reachability_tool.py).
Install Python: If you don't have Python installed on your machine, visit the official Python website (https://www.python.org) and download the latest version of Python for your operating system. Follow the installation instructions to install Python.
Run the Code: Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the directory where you saved the code file (ping_reachability_tool.py). Run the following command to execute the code: python ping_reachability_tool.py

Use Cases !
Network Troubleshooting: You can use this code to quickly identify the reachability of multiple IP addresses within a subnet. It can help in troubleshooting network connectivity issues by determining which IP addresses are reachable and which ones are not.
Security Auditing: This code can be used as part of a security audit to check the reachability of a range of IP addresses. By analyzing the output, you can identify any inaccessible or potentially vulnerable systems that should be investigated further.
Network Monitoring: By scheduling regular runs of this code, you can monitor the reachability of specific IP addresses over time. Any changes in reachability can indicate potential network issues or system outages that need attention.
Inventory Management: If you maintain a list of IP addresses for your organization's devices, you can use this code to periodically validate the reachability of those devices. This helps ensure that your inventory list is accurate and up to date.
Subnet Verification: When configuring new subnets, you can use this code to check if the IP addresses within the subnet are reachable. It provides a quick way to verify the network configuration and ensure that all devices within the subnet can communicate properly.
Note : This code works on all operating systems.
Skip the hassle and buy an executable !! (Needs no installation or coding Knowledge)
