Ping A Server In C# and .NET 2.0

The code below shows how to ping a server from .NET 2.0 (Also works in .NET 3.5)
It is a console app but you can modify the code to use in your class

using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;

namespace PingProc
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Ping("127.0.0.1");
            //Ping("cnn.com");
        }


        public static int Ping(string hostname)
        {
            Ping ping = new Ping();
            
            PingReply reply = ping.Send(hostname);
            if (reply.Status == IPStatus.Success)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Address: {0}", reply.Address);
                Console.WriteLine("RoundTrip Time: {0}", reply.RoundtripTime);
                Console.WriteLine("Time To Live: {0}", reply.Options.Ttl);
                Console.WriteLine("Don't Fragment: {0}", reply.Options.DontFragment);
                Console.WriteLine("Buffer Size: {0}", reply.Buffer.Length);
                Console.WriteLine("Status: {0}", reply.Status);
                
                Console.ReadLine();
                return (0);
            }
            else
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Error");
                Console.WriteLine("Status: {0}", reply.Status);
                Console.ReadLine();
                return (1);
            }
        }
    }
}
