Offhand I do not know the ping command for that but it is trivial with nmap.
You could run "nmap -sP 230.100.133.0-255" for instance, to do a ping scan of
the entire 230.100.133.X class C (?) network.
The output is a list of all the detected systems, mostly as simple IP
addresses in my local case, with a few system names for those computers with
static IPs and netbios names. Since nmap uses ping in this case, there is
obviously a command string that will do it from ping itself. Anyone?
