Description

ICMP echo generation helps monitoring tools measure reachability and latency in the same way ping does. It is useful for diagnostics, service checks, dashboards, and network health tooling.

This is a networking library, not a complete monitoring system. ICMP traffic may be filtered or rate-limited, and scans should respect network ownership and policy.
