Introduction to
Remote-ping
Remote-ping is a network diagnostic tool used to test the performance of
protocols (only ICMP by far) operating on network. It is an enhanced alternative to
the ping command.
Remote-ping test group is a set of remote-ping test parameters. A test group
contains several test parameters and is uniquely identified by an administrator
name plus a test tag.
You can perform an remote-ping test after creating a test group and configuring
the test parameters.
Being different from the ping command, remote-ping does not display the round
trip time (RTT) and timeout status of each packet on the console terminal in real
time. You need to execute the display remote-ping command to view the statistic
results of your remote-ping test operation. remote-ping allows administrators to
set the parameters of remote-ping test groups and start remote-ping test
operations.
