Description: A fully programmable ping replacement
 Sing is a little tool that sends ICMP packets fully customized from command
 line. The main purpose is to replace/complement the nice ping command
 with certain enhancements as:
  - Send fragmented packets (Linux and BSD).
  - Send monster packets > 65534 (Linux and BSD).
  - Send/read spoofed packets.(Libpcap included in distribution).
  - Send many ICMP Information types in addition to the ECHO REQUEST type
    sent by default as Address Mask Request, Timestamp, Information Request,
  - Router Solicitation and Router Advertisement.
  - Send many ICMP error types: Redirect, Source Quench, Time Exceeded,
    Destination Unreach and Parameter Problem.
  - Send to host with Loose or Strict Source Routing.
  - Use little fingerprinting techniques to discover Windows or Solaris
    boxes.
  - Send ICMP packets emulating certain OS: Cisco, Solaris, Linux, Shiva,
    Unix and Windows at the moment.
