How to run "ping" command from within Laravel Sail application

[sts-ryan-holton]

I'm working with Laravel 11 and need to programmatically execute the "ping" command and get the result. I'm using Laravel Sail. But when I attempt to use the Process facade I get an error:

"sh: 1: ping: not found
" // app/Livewire/Site/Forms/Tools/ToolForm.php:48

$result = Process::run('ping -c 3 google.com');

dd($result->errorOutput());

How can I achieve this?

Ping needs to be installed in the sail container. It's not installed by default to keep it small

How might I go about installing it? iputils-ping can't be found when using sail root-shell and trying to install the package. Ideally don't want to publish the whole dokcerfile to add one package. What do you recommend to get this resolved?
