Answer Wiki:
To get the name of a computer you can try: Ping -a x.x.x.x IF it's registered with dns then it will return a name For stopping an IP address on the network you can put a command in the firewall, router or switch to drop all packets from that ip or possibly set up in DHCP for that address to get incorrect information for the network setup (not the best solution here, not good if the person knows how to setup a static address) Not sure if there are other ways.

Hi,
You can do it not by using ping command rather you should use “tracert ip” for example
“tracert 192.168.0.1″.it will return name of the computer along with some more parameters .
best wishes
