How to get only the reply line of a ping test on Windows

Question

Usually, when pinging a server IP address we have this in return:

Pinging  with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from  : bytes=32 time=151 TTL         


        

Answer 1

You can combine findstr command with the skip lines option of for:

C:\>ping 127.0.0.1 | for /f "skip=3 tokens=*" %a in ('findstr Reply') do @echo %a

Output is:

Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128

Change %a to %%a if writing a batch file.
