Easily generate ICMP packets

icmplib is a brand new and modern implementation of the ICMP protocol in Python. Use the built-in functions or build your own, you have the choice! - Ready-to-use: icmplib offers ready-to-use functions such as the most popular ones: ping, multiping and traceroute. An extensive documentation also helps you get started. - Modern: This library uses the latest mechanisms offered by Python 3.7+ and is fully object-oriented. - Fast: Each class and function has been designed and optimized to deliver the best performance. Some functions are also asynchronous like the async_ping and async_multiping functions. You can ping the world in seconds! - Powerful: Use the library without root privileges, set the traffic class of ICMP packets, customize their payload, send broadcast requests and more! - Evolutive: Easily build your own classes and functions with ICMPv4 and ICMPv6 sockets. - Seamless integration of IPv6: Use IPv6 the same way you use IPv4. - Cross-platform: Optimized for Linux, macOS and Windows. The library automatically manages the specificities of each system. - No dependency: icmplib is a pure Python implementation of the ICMP protocol. It does not rely on any external dependency.
