tcping Eli Fulkerson
Use this command to install tcping:
winget install --id=EliFulkerson.tcping -e tcping.exe is a console application that operates similarly to 'ping', however it works over a tcp port. There are many different implementions of this floating around, written independently by different people. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Tcping.exe is a console application designed to perform network connectivity tests via TCP ports by simulating a "ping" over TCP connections. It establishes a connection to remote hosts and measures the time taken for the TCP three-way handshake (SYN, SYN/ACK, ACK). This utility provides insights into network latency and port availability.
Key Features:
- Send multiple pings with adjustable intervals between each test.
- Configure timeouts for responses and specify the number of attempts.
- Enable HTTP mode to test web servers by requesting specific documents or URLs.
- Support for IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, including proxy configurations.
- Calculate jitter (time variability) over a specified depth of previous results.
- Audible notifications for state changes in network connectivity.
- Perform periodic DNS lookups to account for dynamic IP address changes.
Audience & Benefit: Ideal for network administrators and developers who need to monitor TCP port connectivity and test network performance.Tcping provides accurate measurements of connection establishment times, helping identify latency issues or unreachable ports. It can be installed via winget.
