Ping — Network Connectivity Tool

A thorough network connectivity diagnostic tool that checks host availability, traces routes, sweeps subnets, monitors uptime, and analyzes latency patterns. All results are stored locally in JSONL format for historical analysis and reporting.

Prerequisites

• ping command (pre-installed on most systems)
• traceroute or tracepath (for route tracing)
• python3 (for data processing and reporting)
• bash 4.0+

Data Storage

All ping results and configuration are stored in ~/.ping/:

• ~/.ping/data.jsonl — historical ping results (JSONL format)
• ~/.ping/config.json — user configuration (default count, timeout, etc.)
