`ping`

Syntax

ping  [ data-fill  | datagram-size  | interval  | repetitions  | timeout  | tos  | ip-option (include-timestamp | include-timestamp-and-address |record-route ) | vrf ]

Description

Pings the specified IPv4 address or hostname with or without optional parameters.

Command context

Operator (>) or Manager (#)

Parameters

Selects the IPv4 address to ping.

Selects the hostname to ping. Range: 1-256 characters

data-fill

Specifies the data pattern in hexadecimal digits to send. A maximum of 16 "pad" bytes can be specified to fill out the ICMP packet. Default: AB

datagram-size

Specifies the ping datagram size. Range: 0-65399, default: 100.

interval

Specifies the interval between successive ping requests in seconds. Range: 1-60 seconds, default: 1 second.

repetitions

Specifies the number of packets to send. Range: 1-10000 packets, default: Five packets.

timeout

Specifies the ping timeout in seconds. Range: 1-60 seconds, default: 2 seconds.

tos

Specifies the IP Type of Service to be used in Ping request. Range: 0-255

ip-option [include-timestamp | include-timestamp-and-address | record-route]

Specifies an IP option (record-routeortimestampoption).

include-timestamp: Specifies the intermediate router time stamp.

include-timestamp-and-address: Specifies the intermediate router time stamp and IP address.

record-route: Specifies the intermediate router addresses.

vrf

Specifies the virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) to use. When VRF option is not given, the default VRF is used.

Authority

Operators or Administrators or local user group members with execution rights for this command. Operators can execute this command from the operator context (>) only.
