-m

interval

: Specifies the interval (in milliseconds) to send ICMP echo requests. The value range is 1

to 65535, and the default is 200.

-n

: Disables domain name resolution for the

host

argument. If the

host

argument represents the host

name of the destination, and if this keyword is not specified, the device translates

host

into an

address.

-p

pad

: Specifies the value of the

pad

field in an ICMP echo request, in hexadecimal format, 1 to 8

bits. The

pad

argument is in the range of 0 to ffffffff. If the specified value is less than 8 bits, 0s are

added in front of the value to extend it to 8 bits. For example, if

pad

is configured as 0x2f, then the

packets are padded with 0x0000002f to make the total length of the packet meet the requirements of
the device. By default, the padded value starts from 0x01 up to 0xff, where another round starts
again if necessary, such as 0x010203…feff01….

-q

: Displays only the summary statistics. If this keyword is not specified, the system displays all the

ping statistics.

-r

: Records the addresses of the hops (up to 9) the ICMP echo requests passed. If this keyword is

not specified, the addresses of the hops that the ICMP echo requests passed are not recorded.

-s

packet-size

: Specifies the length (in bytes) of ICMP echo requests (excluding the IP packet

header and the ICMP packet header). The value range is 20 to 8100, and the default is 56.

-t

timeout

: Specifies the timeout time (in milliseconds) of an ICMP echo reply. The value range is 0 to

65535, and the default is 2000. If the source does not receive an ICMP echo reply within the timeout,
it considers the ICMP echo reply timed out.

-tos

tos

: Specifies the ToS value of ICMP echo requests. The value range is 0 to 255, and the default

is 0.

-v

: Displays non-ICMP echo reply packets. If this keyword is not specified, the system does not

display non-ICMP echo reply packets.

-vpn-instance

vpn-instance-name

: Specifies the MPLS L3VPN instance to which the destination

belongs, where

the

vpn-instance-name

argument is a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. If

the destination is on the public network, do not specify this option.

host

: Specifies the IP address or host name of the destination. The host name is a case-insensitive

string of 1 to 253 characters. It can contain letters, digits, and special characters such as hyphen (-),
underscore (_), and dot (.).

Usage guidelines

To use the name of the destination host to perform the ping operation, you must first configure the
DNS on the device. Otherwise, the ping operation will fail.

To abort the ping operation during the execution of the command, press

Ctrl+C

Examples

Test whether the device with an IP address of 1.1.2.2 is reachable.

<Sysname> ping 1.1.2.2

Ping 1.1.2.2 (1.1.2.2): 56 data bytes, press CTRL_C to break

56 bytes from 1.1.2.2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=254 time=2.137 ms

56 bytes from 1.1.2.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=254 time=2.051 ms

56 bytes from 1.1.2.2: icmp_seq=2 ttl=254 time=1.996 ms

56 bytes from 1.1.2.2: icmp_seq=3 ttl=254 time=1.963 ms
