The equivalent of "man" is "man", therefore the equivalent of "man ping" is "man ping". That is also the equivalent of "man ping" in the RedHat Linux 7.2 from which you apparently *have* migrated since your initial post here on Sept 12:
Dear All Can you please do me favor and let me know what are the highlights of major benefits of CentOS Release 5 (Final) over the RedHat Linux 7.2 (Enigma) as we are going to migrate to it ? Thank you in advance Regards H.Motamedi

That works for ping, but hasn't been a good generalization since the gnu versions of things started updating only info pages. So, for example, the equivalent of what you'd expect from "man tar" is "info tar". $ man tar |wc -l 457 $ info tar 2>/dev/null |wc -l 1469
