Question

I am creating a little program to ping a computer within a network. For this i am trying to use the class ping, from

namespace System.Net.NetworkInformatio         


        

Answer 1

The problem is that Ping is not in the System.Net.NetworkInfomation package (does that package even exist?) for CoreCLR (aspnetcore50).

According to the package search website, you need to add a reference to the System.Net.Utilities package.
