DGS-1210/ME Metro Ethernet Switch CLI Reference Guide
27
Description
The ping
command sends Internet Control Message Protocol
(ICMP) echo messages to a remote IP address. The remote IP
address then ‘echos’ or returns the message. This is used to confirm
connectivity between the Switch and the remote device.
Parameters
<ipaddr> - The IP address of the host.
times <value 1-255> -
The number of individual ICMP echo
messages to be sent. The maximum value is 255. The default is 4.
timeout <sec 1-99> - The time-out p
eriod while waiting for a
response from the remote device. A value of 1 to 99 seconds can be
specified. The default is 1 second.
size <short 0-2080> - Specify the size of the test packet. A value of
0 to 2080 can be specified.
Restrictions None.
Example usage:
To ping the IP address 10.6.150.34 three times:
DGS-1210-28MP/ME:5# ping 10.6.150.34 times 3
Command: ping 10.6.150.34 times 3
Reply Not Received From : 10.6.150.34, Timeout : 5 secs
Reply Not Received From : 10.6.150.34, Timeout : 5 secs
Reply Not Received From : 10.6.150.34, Timeout : 5 secs

Purpose To test the IPv6 connectivity between network devices.
Syntax
ping6 <ipv6_addr> {frequency <sec 0-86400> | size <value 1-
1522> | source_ip <ipv6_addr> | timeout <sec 1-99> | times
<value 1-255>}
Description
The ping6 command sends IPv6 Internet Control Message Protocol
(ICMP) echo messages to a remote IPv6 address. The remote IPv6
address will then “echo” or return the message. This is used to
confirm the IPv6 connectivity between the switch and the remote
device.
Parameters
<ipv6_addr> - The IPv6 address of the host.
frequency <sec 0-86400> - The number of seconds to wait before
repeating a ping test as defined by the value of this parameter.
A single ping test consists of a series of ping probes. The number of
probes is determined by the value of the parameter times. After a
single test completes the number of seconds as defined by the value
of frequency must elapse before the next ping test is started.
A value of 0 for this parameter implies that the test as defined by the
corresponding entry will not be repeated.
size <short 1-1522> - Specify the size of the test packet. A value of
1 to 6000 can be specified.
source_ip <ipv6_addr > -
Specify the source IPv6 address of the
ping packets. If specified this parameter, this IPv6 address will be
