ICMP Ping

[leo lencioni]

I'am new to erlang, and I want to write a simple ICMP ping logger as an example 

I read the documentation and I found that erlang has support for raw sockets. 

1) Can erlang generate and send an ICMP Echo request? 
2) Where I can find an example? 

Thanks in avance for your help,
