Question

I need to create a stored procedure which will get destination IP and then call tracert or ping and then write the result into a sql table so then I can show user the result in a web page .
is it possible to do this ? if yes would you please tell me how because I have searched a lot and didn’t find a proper solution .
and if not what do you suggest ?

Thanks

Modify as needed –

declare @results table(result varchar(500))

insert into @results
exec sp_executesql N'xp_cmdshell ''ping www.yahoo.com'''

select * from @results

Similarly for tracert

declare @results table(result varchar(500))

insert into @results
exec sp_executesql N'xp_cmdshell ''tracert www.yahoo.com'''

select * from @results
