Okay, I should know this. Or, I should open up ethereal and set port-forwarding on my switch, so please pardon my laziness. Anyone know what port and protocol Ping uses? I looked it up and saw TCP port 7 and UDP port 7, then saw something else regarding ICMP Echo. 

So, any of you capture a ping? What port and protocol does it use?
