  2. ping (networking utility) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ping_(networking_utility)

    Ping measures the round-trip time for messages sent from the originating host to a destination computer that are echoed back to the source. The name comes from active sonar terminology that sends a pulse of sound and listens for the echo to detect objects under water. [1] Ping operates by means of Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packets.

  3. Timeout (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeout_(computing)

    Network timeout preventing a Web browser from loading a page. In telecommunications and related engineering (including computer networking and programming), the term timeout or time-out has several meanings, including: A network parameter related to an enforced event designed to occur at the conclusion of a predetermined elapsed time.

  4. Transmission time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_time

    The round-trip time or ping time is the time from the start of the transmission from the sending node until a response (for example an ACK packet or ping ICMP response) is received at the same node. It is affected by packet delivery time as well as the data processing delay, which depends on the load on the responding node. If the sent data ...

  5. MTR (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTR_(software)

    MTR also has a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) mode (invoked with "-u" on the command line or pressing the "u" key in the curses interface) that sends UDP packets, with the time to live (TTL) field in the IP header increasing by one for each probe sent, toward the destination host. When the UDP mode is used, MTR relies on ICMP port unreachable ...

  6. traceroute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traceroute

    PathPing is a utility introduced with Windows NT that combines ping and traceroute functionality. MTR is an enhanced version of ICMP traceroute available for Unix-like and Windows systems. The various implementations of traceroute all rely on ICMP Time Exceeded (type 11) packets being sent to the source.

  8. Round-trip delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-trip_delay

    This time delay includes propagation times for the paths between the two communication endpoints. [1] In the context of computer networks, the signal is typically a data packet. RTT is commonly used interchangeably with ping time, which can be determined with the ping command.

  9. Latency (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

    Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games. [1]
