A ICMP header consists of:

Create a ICMP header

# standalone
icmp = PacketGen::Header::ICMP.new
# in a packet
pkt = PacketGen.gen('IP').add('ICMP')
# access to ICMP header
pkt.icmp     # => PacketGen::Header::ICMP

ICMP attributes

icmp.code = 0
icmp.type = 200
icmp.checksum = 0x248a
icmp.body.read 'this is a body'
