ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) ping sends echo request packets to a target host and waits for echo replies. It measures round-trip time and checks if a host is reachable. This is the most common type of ping.

TCP ping attempts to establish a TCP connection to a specific port on the target. It measures connection time and verifies if the port is open and accepting connections. Useful when ICMP is blocked.

UDP ping sends UDP packets to a specific port. Since UDP is connectionless, it relies on ICMP port unreachable responses or application-level responses to determine reachability.

Why would I use TCP/UDP ping instead of ICMP?

Many firewalls block ICMP packets. TCP/UDP ping can bypass these restrictions by testing specific application ports, making them useful for checking if specific services are accessible.

UDP ping sends UDP packets to a specific port. Since UDP is connectionless, it relies on responses to determine reachability. Useful for testing DNS (port 53) or other UDP services.

Why can I only ping public IPs?

For security and legal reasons, we only allow pinging public IP addresses. Private, reserved, and local IP addresses are blocked to prevent misuse.
