Hi,

I hope this post will help.

thanks, Charles for your response

all links in this post are not available and I can't find any description for these APIs

void ICMPGenPacket( IPHDR *pIpHdr, HANDLE hIFRx, uint Type, uint Code, UINT32 Aux )
void ICMPSendRtAdv( HANDLE hIFTx, uint Life, IPN IPAddr, long Pref )

these APIs are defined at

C:\ti\tirtos_tivac_2_16_00_08\products\ndk_2_25_00_09\packages\ti\ndk\stack\icmp\icmp.c

I ran the example you mentioned in the post but I think it depends on an xdc configuration that I don't want to be forced to use

so I took these files at C:\ti\tirtos_tivac_2_16_00_08\products\ndk_2_25_00_09\packages\ti\ndk\tools\console\conping.c
and modified it a little bit to remove logging parts that were hard-coded, I have my logging so this custom version I changed is working now

but the question is

can I use these APIs

ICMPGenPacket and ICMPSendRtAdv

to send an ICMP request

Indeed, these links are inaccessible now. Sorry, but I have tried and I don't know how to retrieve them anymore.

I don't see a problem using these API if they work for you.

I can't run the APIs inside this file directly "coping" so I copied them and modified them a little bit but can I have a tutorial for this example

the other question is that

I found these two APIs
ICMPGenPacket and ICMPSendRtAdv

and I don't know If I can send an ICMP echo request with any of them.

is there any API description for these two APIs(ICMPGenPacket and ICMPSendRtAdv) I can't find one.?

Hi Hazem,

Unfortunately, I'm unable to find any documentation for these two functions either. I have done some searches and there are a few posts with some code snippets making use of ICMPGenPacket. You can do the same search too. I suppose if it woks for you, you should see a 8-byte ICMP packet on Wireshark that conforms the packet protocol described here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Control_Message_Protocol
