]
To ping a device that has IP address 10.1.1.1, type the following command:
DWS-1008#
ping 10.1.1.1
PING 10.1.1.1 (10.1.1.1) from 10.9.4.34 : 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.1.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.769 ms
64 bytes from 10.1.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=0.628 ms
64 bytes from 10.1.1.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=0.676 ms
64 bytes from 10.1.1.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=0.619 ms

--- 10.1.1.1 ping statistics --
5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0 errors, 0% packet loss
In this example, the ping is successful, indicating that the switch has IP connectivity with the other
device.
Note: A switch cannot ping itself. MSS does not support this.
