This is a tiny tool that you must know if you want to check if your architecture is well configured. Here we've seen how you can ping an Azure App Service inside the Azure Portal. There are also some flags that can be set: That's the way to avoid ICMP packets! Just use TCP! If you wanna have more info about this command, you can simply type tcpping.įirst of all, it explains what it is: Opens a TCP socket to a target host:port and returns whether the initial handshake was successful and a connection was established. If you try to ping myapi from Azure, you won't receive a Request time out, but a different error:Ĭonnected to :80, time taken: 171msĬonnected to :80, time taken: 109msĬomplete: 4/4 successful attempts ( 100% ). You will find both a Console and an external tool called Advanced Tools: you can use both, but here I'm using the Console tool: To ping the destination 10.0.99.221 and resolve 10.0.99.221 to its host name, type: ping /a 10.0.99.221 To ping the destination 10.0.99.221 with 10 echo Request messages, each of which has a Data field of 1000 bytes, type: ping /n 10 /l 1000 10.0.99.221 To ping the destination 10.0.99.221 and record the route for 4 hops, type: ping /r 4 10.0.99. Azure Portal allows you to use multiple tools to interact and analyze what's going on on your App: just open your resource and head to Development Tools So what? TCPPing - the solution for youįirst of all, you should try to ping the service within the Azure Portal, so that you are sure you're running the commands in the cloud environment.

Of course, you can't open a browser inside the Azure portal.

Now you want to check if the networking between the two systems works well and check if everything is well configured. The ping command sends Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) ECHOREQUEST messages to elicit ICMP. Let's say that you have a website,, that must communicate with an API hosted at . Check host reachability and network connectivity. In fact, if you try it from your system, you will receive Request time out.īut at least you can try to reach it using a browser! A simple use case Unfortunately ICMP presents risks and problems for our underlying network infrastructure. The problem comes when you want to ping a service hosted on Azure: in order to avoid DDoS attacks, the Azure team decided to block ICMP packets.

Just as a reminder, ICMP ( Internet Control Message Protocol) is a network protocol that is at the same level as TCP and UDP on the networking stack, but it is typically not used for exchanging data between endpoints but only for sharing errors or information. More in detail, ping sends an ICMP echo request to a specified interface and waits for a reply. PSSS! Remember not to include the protocol! ICMP Minimum = 15ms, Maximum = 20ms, Average = 17ms Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 ( 0% loss ),Īpproximate round trip times in milli-seconds: 1 revert to default.Īdjusts the direction and intensity of the wind.Pinging v with 32 bytes of data: Skips forward, changing day number and time of day.
