tcp ping feature
Hello here is a simple Tcp ping feature
Introduces a new pinger using std:net:TcpStream to measure connection time.
Updated pinger library with new tcp::TcpPinger
Added 3 new PingOptions to the pinger library tcping - to use the tcp pinger - default false allow_rst - this is an option to treat connectionRefused as a pong, but the behavior is not always consistent, default false port - default 80 - it would be nice to extend the Target to allow ports, but for simplicity just passing a port
On gping the changes are minimal introduced these arguments, to pass the options when creating the pinger.
-t, --tcping
Use TCP pings instead of ICMP
-r, --no-rst
Treat RST as a drop (default is to not consider RST as pong)
-p, --port <PORT>
TCP port (only used for TCP pings) [default: 80]
Here is how I used it to compare nameserver tcp responses: gping -t 127.0.0.53 1.1.1.1 192.168.2.254 8.8.8.8 -p 53 -n 2
