//store the socket in _iCMPSockets to dispose them on disposing the owner
 
Inverse.TryResolve<ILoggerFactory>(out var factory);
foreach (var ip in LocalNetwork.LocalIPAddresses())
{ 
    _iCMPSockets.Add(new ICMPSocket(ip,_cancellationToken.Token));
    _iCMPSockets[^1].PacketReceived += OnPinged;
    _iCMPSockets[^1].Logger = factory?.CreateLogger("Walter.Net.Networking.ICMPSocket.") ?? _logger;
    _iCMPSockets[^1].Start();
}
