B.

C.

D.
Ping scanner
The Answer Is:
D
This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
A ping scanner is a tool that sends ICMP ECHO requests across a network and rapidly makes a list of responding nodes. Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is an integral part of IP. It is used to report an error in datagram processing. The Internet Protocol (IP) is used for host-to-host datagram service in a network. The network is configured with connecting devices called gateways. When an error occurs in datagram processing, gateways or destination hosts report the error to the source hosts through the ICMP protocol. The ICMP messages are sent in various situations, such as when a datagram cannot reach its destination, when the gateway cannot direct the host to send traffic on a shorter route, when the gateway does not have the buffering capacity, etc. Answer: A, B, C are incorrect. These tools do not use ICMP to perform their functions.
