Also, there's MacPing (Dartmouth <http://www.dartmouth.edu/netsoftware/>)
which does ICMP and *MUCH* more:

    MacPing Suite: Commands to control MacPing from an AppleScript.

    TestZone: MacPing will test all nets contained in the specified zone.
    This is equivalent to the "Test Zone..." menu choice.
        TestZone  string  -- zone name

    TestIP: MacPing will test an IP host or range of hosts.  This is
    equivalent to the "Test IP..." menu choice.
        TestIP  string  -- an IP address or host name
                [to  string]  -- end of range
                [include  named/active/all]  -- search option

    TestNet: MacPing will test an AppleTalk network or range of
    networks. This is equivalent to the "Test Network..." menu choice.
        TestNet  integer  -- network number
                [to  integer]  -- high end of range

    Pause: MacPing will pause testing.
        Pause

    Resume: MacPing will resume testing if it is paused.
        Resume
