Overview
Gping 1.20.1 on Ubuntu 24.04 with free maintenance support by kCloudHubs is a repackaged open-source solution, where optional paid support is available. Gping (Graphical Ping) takes the classic ping command and makes it far more visual and practical by showing real-time latency as a live graph directly in your terminal. It is simple, fast, and perfect when you want instant network feedback without spinning up heavy tools.
What It Does
Gping continuously sends ICMP echo requests and renders response times as an easy-to-read, updating ASCII graph. You can monitor one host or compare multiple hosts side by side, all from a single terminal window. It runs smoothly on Ubuntu 24.04 and fits naturally into cloud and DevOps workflows.
How It Compares
Gping focuses on quick, lightweight latency monitoring. Other open-source tools solve different problems:
- ntopng delivers deep traffic visibility through a browser-based dashboard, using high-speed packet capture to analyse bandwidth, protocols, and flows.
- LiveNX Node is built for large, distributed environments. It collects NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, SNMP, OTEL, and LiveFlow data locally, processes it at the edge, and forwards optimised records to a central LiveNX server.
In short, G-Ping is great for fast checks and troubleshooting, ntopng is ideal for packet-level analytics, and LiveNX Node shines in enterprise, multi-site deployments.
Technical Highlights
- Live, terminal-based latency graphs with no GUI required
- On the other hand pinging of multiple hosts for easy comparison
- Lightweight and fast, with minimal system overhead
- Runs on Ubuntu 24.04 and works across Linux, macOS, and Windows
