[-t
<timeout>
] [-r
<repeat_count>
] [-s
<size>
] [-p] [-a
<address>
] [-v] are
optional. These parameters are as follows:
<timeout>
is the number of seconds for each ping to time out. If the system
receives a response to a ping after it has timed out, the system does not send an
alive
message to the console. The default is 5.
<repeat_count>
is the number of ping messages to send. Enter a value from 0 to
10. The default is 1.
<size>
is the number of bytes of data to send with each ping. The default is 16.
-p generates a path trace report that displays the intervening hop addresses to the
destination and the time that it took to reach them.
<address>
is the source address.
-v (verbose) generates statistical information about the ICMP echo request,
including information about the success rate and round-trip time.
The console displays one of the following messages when you issue a
ping
command. If you enter a value in the
<repeat_count>
argument, the system
displays one of the following messages for the default ping, plus one for each
additional ping:
•An
alive
message: This message appears if the system receives an ICMP
echo response from the target device within the <timeout> allowed. The
message also indicates the size of the test packet. A sample message follows:
ping: 192.32.1.151 is alive (size = 16 bytes)
•A
does not respond
message: This message appears if the system does not
receive an ICMP echo response from the target device within the <timeout>
allowed. A sample message follows:
ping: 193.32.1.151 does not respond
Note:
The Nortel Networks implementation of the ICMP protocol does not
support loopback (pinging your own system) or broadcast addresses.
