class Net::Ping::ICMP

Public Class Methods

new(host=nil, port=nil, timeout=5) click to toggle source

Creates and returns a new Ping::ICMP object. This is similar to its superclass constructor, but must be created with root privileges (on UNIX systems), and the port value is ignored.

Calls superclass method Net::Ping::new

# File lib/net/ping/icmp.rb, line 30
def initialize(host=nil, port=nil, timeout=5)
  begin
    # If we have cap2, but not are root, or have net_raw, raise an error
    require 'cap2'
    current_process = Cap2.process
    unless Process.euid == 0 \
      || current_process.permitted?(:net_raw) \
      && current_process.enabled?(:net_raw)
      raise StandardError, 'requires root privileges or setcap net_raw'
    end
  rescue LoadError
    # Without cap2, raise error if we are not root
    unless Process.euid == 0
      raise StandardError, 'requires root privileges or setcap net_raw'
    end
  end

bind(host, port = 0) click to toggle source

Associates the local end of the socket connection with the given host and port. The default port is 0.

# File lib/net/ping/icmp.rb, line 78
def bind(host, port = 0)
  @bind_host = host
  @bind_port = port
end

data_size=(size) click to toggle source

Sets the number of bytes sent in the ping method.

# File lib/net/ping/icmp.rb, line 69
def data_size=(size)
  @data_size = size
  @data = ''
  0.upto(size){ |n| @data << (n % 256).chr }
end

ping(host = @host) click to toggle source

Pings the host specified in this method or in the constructor. If a host was not specified either here or in the constructor, an ArgumentError is raised.

Private Instance Methods

checksum(msg) click to toggle source

Perform a checksum on the message. This is the sum of all the short words and it folds the high order bits into the low order bits.

# File lib/net/ping/icmp.rb, line 171
def checksum(msg)
  length    = msg.length
  num_short = length / 2
  check     = 0

  msg.unpack("n#{num_short}").each do |short|
    check += short
  end

  if length % 2 > 0
    check += msg[length-1, 1].unpack('C').first << 8
  end

  check = (check >> 16) + (check & 0xffff)
  return (~((check >> 16) + check) & 0xffff)
end
