Simple ping without connection

[kurtmanzano]

hi, ive read almost all the forums about ping, but it needs to be connected first.
is there a solution for pining an ip without a connection

my code is (but needs to be first connected)

strCmd = "ping 10.0.0.1"
strCmd = crt.Dialog.Prompt(strCmd)
crt.Screen.Send strCmd & vbcr


----
my problem is i have a list of ip but some of them are dead ip. i need to ping them first before connecting. I need this to run independently without connecting first to a server . thanks

Hi kurtmanzano,

Thanks for the question. I am not sure why you would need to ping a device first. Is your script hanging because it can't reach the device?
