Pinger With Python

This Python script pings IP addresses sequentially within a range to check if hosts are responding. It uses regular expressions to parse ping output and identify response codes, then prints the response status of each host along with timestamps. The script exits if a host returns no response, since it requires both servers to be available for testing.
