To send ICMP ECHO_REQUESTs to network hosts, you can use the following command:

vsr> cmd ping localhost packetsize 256 count 4
PING localhost (::1) 256 data bytes
264 bytes from localhost (::1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.034 ms

264 bytes from localhost (::1): icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.036 ms
264 bytes from localhost (::1): icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.037 ms

--- localhost ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 4 received, 0% packet loss, time 3109ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.034/0.035/0.037/0.001 ms

The command can be interrupted by hitting ctrl-c.
