234 NetWare MultiProtocol Router for ISDN 3.1 Installation and ISDN Configuration Guide
The TPING utility enables you to send an ICMP echo request packet
to an IP node on your internetwork.
TPING determines the reachability of an IP target node on your
internetwork, to which it sends a request packet. If the target node
receives the request packet, it sends back a reply packet.
To use TPING, type the following command at the server prompt and
press <Enter>:
LOAD TPING host [packet size [retry count]]
where,
Host is the symbolic hostname or IP address of a TCP/IP system on
the network.
Packet size is the size, in bytes, of the ICMP packet.
Retry count is the number of times you want to send an ICMP packet
to the host system until a reply is received.
TPING sends a maximum of five ICMP echo request packets to the
target node by default. If it receives a response, TPING stops sending
requests and displays a message indicating that the target node is
reachable. If it does not receive a response, TPING displays a message
indicating that the target node did not respond.
