Usage Guidelines
The
ping
command is used to test for connectivity to a specific host.
The
ping
command is available for both the user and administrator privilege level.
If a
ping
request fails, the switch continues to send
ping
messages until interrupted. Press any key to
interrupt a
ping
request.
For ExtremeWare 6.1:
•
You must configure DNS in order to use the
hostname
option.
udp
Specifies that the ping request should use UDP instead of ICMP.
continuous
Specifies that UDP or ICMP echo messages to be sent continuously. This
option can be interrupted by pressing any key.
start_size (“i” series switches)
size-number (“e” series switches
Specifies the size, in bytes, of the packet to be sent, or the starting size if
incremental packets are to be sent.
end_size
Specifies the maximum size, in bytes, of the packet to be sent in the UDP or
ICMP request. When both the start_size and end_size are specified, ICMP
requests are transmitted using 1 byte increments, per packet.
ipaddress
Specifies the IP address of the host.
hostname
Specifies the name of the host.
src_ipaddress
Uses the specified source address in the ICMP packet. If not specified, the
address of the transmitting interface is used.
