Description

Lets Python code create ICMP packets for tools similar to ping and traceroute. It is useful for network diagnostics, reachability checks, latency measurements, and learning how ICMP-based probing works.

This can require elevated privileges and sends packets on the network. Use it only on systems and networks where diagnostics are allowed, because probing outside your own scope may violate policy.
