Description

Network bandwidth can be estimated with ICMP-based measurements. It is useful for administrators checking connectivity characteristics when TCP or application-level tests are not the right fit.

This is a diagnostic tool, not a speed-test guarantee. Results depend on routing, ICMP filtering, packet size, and network policy, so interpret measurements with context.
