I need a batch file to ping a list of ip from a source file(iplist.txt)written like this:
-----------------
0.0.0.0, host1, note
1.1.1.1, host2, note
2.2.2.2, host3, note
-----------------
i just want to get a result written like this in (pingresult.txt):

0.0.0.0 , host1 , note, time ,up
1.1.1.1 , host2 , note, time ,down
2.2.2.2 , host3 , note, time ,up

plz can anyone help me

Try this:

::== pinglist.bat
@echo off > pingresult.txt

for /f "tokens=* delims=," %%I in (IPlist.txt) do call :sub1 %%I
goto :eof

:sub1

set status=up
ping %1 |find /i "reply" > nul
if errorlevel 1 set status=down
>> pingresult.txt echo %* , %TIME%, %status%
goto :eof
:: DONE

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

The second line starts with for and ends with %%I; but it got wrapped here.

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

thanks for the replay,

i try your code, the result:

- for the ip that i confirm up (i reconfirm by manually ping in DOS) the status in pingresult.txt is = up

- but for the ip that i confirm "expired in transmit" (i reconfirm by manually ping in DOS) the status in pingresult.txt is also = up.

is there is a way where we can come out for a result like this
----------
0.0.0.0,host1, note, time, up
1.1.1.1,host2, note, time, expired in transit
2.2.2.2,host3, note, time, up
3.3.3.3,host4, note, time, down

----------

in this situation i consider the ip with ping result = expired in transit or request time out as down.

kindly assist me.

Hi,

I have not recieved the "expired in transit" result so I don't know the complete output or the result code.

If you have an IP which will give that result, post the out put. And do this and let me know the errorlevel number:

echo %errorlevel%

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

Just after the ping stops, do this:

[enter]

goto :eof

:sub1

ping %1 > pinglog

find /i "unknown host" < pinglog > nul
if not errorlevel 1 set status=down

find /i "reply" < pinglog > nul
if not errorlevel 1 set status=up

find /i "expired in transit" < pinglog > nul
if not errorlevel 1 set status=expired in transit

find /i "Request timed out" < pinglog > nul
if not errorlevel 1 set status=down
