ping
Issue 4 May 2002
8-245555-233-123
If the packet length is not specified, the default is 64 bytes. You can add the
packet-length qualifier and the packet size (64-1500 bytes) to the other ping
commands. Some examples include:
■ ping node-name packet-length 800
■ ping ip-address 24.103.5.7 packet-length 100
■ ping board UUCSS packet-length 1000
NOTE:
The default DiffServ and 802.1p/Q parameters downloaded to a IP Media
Processor board will be used in the execution of ping and traceroute
commands which are sourced from that IP Media Processor. By convention,
the recipient of a ping will reply with the same QoS value found in the
received packet, hence the measurements reported should reflect the
behavior of the type of packets sent. IP Media Processor-sourced pings
should reflect audio transport performance and C-LAN-sourced pings
should reflect control information transport performance.
Output
The following example shows the output from ping ip-address packet-length.
Screen 8-21. ping ip-address report
Field descriptions
End-pt IP
The TCP/IP destination address of the ping command.
Port
Location of the C-LAN circuit pack (UUCSS).
Port Type
Can be either PPP-PT for PPP ports (ports 1-16) or ETH-PT for the
Ethernet port (port 17).
Result
PASS or FAIL
Time (ms)
The round-trip time (in milliseconds) of the ping.
Error Code
Identifies problems associated with the circuitry in the data path for a
peer-to-peer IP layer connection
