Chapter 27 ping Command
The
ping
command tests connection between the SSR and an IP host.
Format
ping
<hostname-or-IPaddr>
packets
<num>
size
<num>
wait
<num>
[flood] [dontroute]
Mode
User or Enable
Description
The
ping
command test connection between the SSR and an IP host. The ping
command sends ICMP echo packets to the host you specify.
• If the packets reach the host, the host sends a ping response to the SSR and the CLI
displays messages stating that the host can be reached.
• If the host does not respond, the SSR assumes the host cannot be reached from the
SSR and the CLI display messages stating that the host did not reply.
Parameters
<hostname-or-IPaddr>
The host name or IP address you want to
ping.
packets
<num>
The number of ping packets you want to
send. The default is 1.
size
<num>
The packet size. For Ethernet, specify a num-
ber from 0 – 1364.
wait
<num>
The number of seconds the SSR will wait for
a positive response from the host before as-
suming that the host has not responded. The
default is 1.
flood
Causes the SSR to send a new ping request as
soon as a ping reply is received. If you do not
specify the
flood
option, the SSR waits to
send a new request. The amount of time the
SSR waits is specified by the
wait
option.
dontroute
Restricts the ping to locally attached hosts.
