Do you mean to ping niche stack from an external device or do you want niche stack to send a ping? Probably the second one, since the first one is the basic way of operation.

I never tried pining from iniche but I think it is quite simple.

Try with send_arp() function.

You'll find it in et_arp.c file in

/altera.components/Nios II Software Packages/altera_iniche/UCOSII/src/ip/

If not this function, look in other files in the same ip directory.
