# pingNet
pingNet is a multi-threaded Python tool designed to ping one or multiple IP addresses on a subnet (CIDR) at the same time. You can also ping every IP address range and hostname in a text file.

## Installation

To install:

`$ pip install pingnet`

To upgrade:

`$ pip install --upgrade pingnet`
## Usage
```sh
$ pingnet
usage: pingnet [-h] [-f [FILE]] [-n [COUNT]] [-w] [-V] [address]

positional arguments:
  address               CIDR/hostname/IP
                        Example:
                            pingnet 192.168.1.0/24
                            pingnet www.google.com
                            pingnet 8.8.8.8

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -f [FILE], --file [FILE]
                        specify text file that stores CIDR/hostname/IP
  -n [COUNT], --count [COUNT]
                        number of echo requests to send, default 3
  -w, --write           write results to txt files
  -V, --version         show program's version number and exit
```

## Example

#### Ping a single subnet range/IP/hostname: 
Add `-n` argument to set number of ICMP requests, default is 3
```sh
$ pingnet 8.8.8.8/30 -n 1

PingNet [v0.3.2]

Dead: [3]
 8.8.8.9, 8.8.8.10, 8.8.8.11
Unknown: [0]

```

#### ping every CIDR block/IP/hostname in a text file:

Example `hosts.txt` file containing mix of CIDRs/IPs/hostnames, along with some invalid addresses. PingNet will ignore empty lines and lines start with `#`, also you can comment each line with # followed by the address. 
```txt
192.168.13.0/24
kevinjin.com        #myblog
1.1.1.1             #Cloudflare DNS
invalid.address
google.com
#8.8.4.4
8.8.8.8/30
```

Run the script with `-f` argument to specify the `hosts.txt` file.

```sh
$ pingnet -f hosts.txt -n 2

PingNet [v0.3.4]
Number of ping requests: 2                                        2022/07/18 12:53:20
