fping is a computer network utility program that can be compiled and run on various POSIX Operating Systems. It is similar to the ping program in that it sends out ICMP Echo Request packets and reports on host reachability, packet loss, and round trip delay. Unlike the ping program, fping has the ability to send out ICMP packets to multiple hosts in parallel reducing the time required for checking large numbers of hosts.
