1. Ping (Packet Internet Network Gropher)

• Of all the Windows 10 network commands, Ping is probably the one


almost everyone knows about and has used before.
• The Ping command allows you to test the reachability of a device on a
network. Pinging a host should return four data packets, if the data
packets are not returned you know there is a problem with your network
connection.
• It uses ICMP
