--- 11.18.185.121 ping statistics ---
6 packets transmitted, 6 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.1/0.1/0.3 ms
Step 2 If the ping fails, use the traceroute or the traceroute ipv6 command to determine where connectivity
is failing.
switch# traceroute 11.18.185.121
traceroute to 11.18.185.121 (11.18.185.121), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets
1 11.18.189.129 (11.18.189.129) 0.413 ms 0.257 ms 0.249 ms
2 11.18.0.33 (11.18.0.33) 0.296 ms 0.260 ms 0.258 ms
3 11.81.254.69 (11.81.254.69) 0.300 ms 0.273 ms 0.277 ms

Step 3 Use show ip route or the show ipv6 route command to verify the static route to the remote device.
switch # show ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static
Default gateway is 11.18.185.97
C 11.18.185.96/27 is directly connected, mgmt0
C 11.18.189.128/26 is directly connected, gigabitethernet4/7
Step 4 Use the clear ips arp or clear ipv6 neighbor command to clear the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
or neighbor cache to verify that the activity you are viewing is the most current.
switch# clear ips arp interface gigabitethernet 4/7
arp clear successful
Step 5 Use the show ips arp or the show ips ipv6 neighbors command to verify the hardware address for the
remote device.
switch# show ips arp interface gigabitethernet 4/7
Protocol Address Age (min) Hardware Addr Type Interface
Internet 172.18.185.97 0 00:d0:01:3b:38:0a ARPA GigabitEthernet4/7
Internet 172.18.189.156 0 00:08:02:b3:45:1b ARPA GigabitEthernet4/7
Step 6 Use the show interface command to verify that the Gigabit Ethernet interface is up.
GigabitEthernet4/7 is up
Hardware is GigabitEthernet, address is 0005.3000.9f58
Internet address is 172.18.189.137/26
