l2ping
This command can be used to determine whether the MEP of the Switch can communicate
with a remote MEP or MIP.
Syntax
l2ping {remote-mac <MAC address> | remote-mep <MEPID>} domain-level <Level> ma <No.> mep
<MEPID> [count <Count>] [timeout <Seconds>] [framesize <Size>]
Input mode
User mode and administrator mode
Parameters
{remote-mac <MAC address> | remote-mep <MEPID>}
remote-mac <MAC address>
Specify the MAC address of the remote MEP or MIP whose connectivity you
want to verify.
remote-mep <MEPID>
Specify the ID of the remote MEP whose connectivity you want to verify. For
this parameter, you can specify a remote MEP that can be checked by a CC.
domain-level <Level>
Specify the domain level whose connectivity you want to verify. For this parameter,
you can specify a domain level that was set by a configuration command.
ma <No.>
Specify the MA ID number whose connectivity you want to verify. For this parameter,
you can specify an MA ID number that was set by using a configuration command.
mep <MEPID>
Specify the ID of the Switch's MEP from which you want to verify connectivity. For
this parameter, you can specify an MEP ID that was set by a configuration command.
count <Count>
Sends loopback messages for the number of times specified. The specifiable values
are from 1 to 5.
Operation when this parameter is omitted:
Loopback messages are sent only five times.
timeout <Seconds>
Specify the wait time for a response in seconds. The specifiable values are from 1 to
60.
Operation when this parameter is omitted:
The wait time for a response is 5 seconds.
framesize <Size>
Specify the number of bytes of data to be added to the CFM PDU to be sent. The
specifiable values are from 1 to 9192.
Operation when this parameter is omitted:
40 bytes are added, and the CFM PDU that is sent is 64 bytes.
