I'm not sure what you are looking for, but from TSO you can ping a device
the format is TSO PING xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Here is what I get back from the ping:

Ping CS V2R10: Pinging host 144.74.19.83.  Use ATTN to interrupt.
PING: Ping #1 response took 0.054 seconds. Successes so far 1.

I hope this will help.

Any one have or know where I might get code (or format) to send and
receive/respond to a standard TCP/IP PING?

I am sure that's in a book somewhere.  A pointer to that book would be
helpful.  I am looking to put this in CICS.

(Someone found RFC 862 and 2151 but these are way too general, unless I am
missing something.)

Thanks.
