how to know who ping my computer ? [duplicate]
It looks like you're asking how to see who's pinging you, right? One quick and dirty way would be using tcpdump
to simply monitor all incoming ICMP echo requests:
sudo tcpdump -i ethX icmp and icmp[icmptype]=icmp-echo
where ethX
is the name of the adapter you're interested in listening to.
Note that tcpdump will resolve hostnames by default, so you might need to add the -n
option to get IPs instead.
(This is, by the way, basically identical to the instructions given in the question you linked, though they are for Wireshark, a related but separate tool.)
You can use tcpdump like this
tcpdump ip proto \\icmp
and you get this kind of output
09:25:22.650727 IP 192.168.1.69 > centos6.lan: ICMP echo request, id 1, seq 1, l ength 40 09:25:22.650816 IP centos6.lan > 192.168.1.69: ICMP echo reply, id 1, seq 1, len gth 40
You could use iptables too
iptables -I INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type 8 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j LOG --log-level=1 --log-prefix "Ping Request "
and get messages like this in /var/log/messages (on CentOS at least)
