I can't see a reason why ping isn't possible? Should be quite easy to build in prontoscript.
So, how might you do it? UDP?
According to:
[Link: en.wikipedia.org]ICMP is an Internet Protocol whereas TCP and UDP are Transport Protocols. Pronto uses a combination of IPV4 Internet Protocol and TCP or UDP Tranport Protocols. I would think this is not possible based on available objects in ProntoScript. To work with ICMP, I believe that one would have to have direct access to the Internet Protocol as well as the Transport Protocol for the TCPSocket or UDPSocket. Am I incorrect in this assumption?
