By default, the receive end is disabled from monitoring Layer 3 Eth-Trunk member
interfaces.
NOTE
The trunk member-port-inspect command takes effect for all Layer 3 Eth-Trunks on a device. To
test the connectivity of Eth-Trunks, disable this function after detection of Eth-Trunk member
interfaces is completed. If this function is not disabled, the device keeps monitoring Eth-Trunk
member interfaces, which consumes a lot of system resources.
Step 2 Enable the transmit end to monitor Layer 3 Eth-Trunk member interfaces.
1. Run:
ping [ ip ] [ -a source-ip-address | -c count | -d | -h ttl-value | -i
interface-type interface-number | -m time | -p pattern | -q | -r | -s
packetsize | -system-time | -t timeout | -v | -vpn-instance vpn-instance-
name ]
*
host [ ip-forwarding ]
The transmit end is enabled to monitor the reachability of Layer 3 Eth-Trunk member
interfaces.
NOTE
When testing the reachability of Layer 3 Eth-Trunk member interfaces, you must specify the -a and -i
parameters in the ping command. -a and -i indicate the source IP address and source interface of ICMP
Echo Request packets respectively.
The ping command output contains the following information:
l Response to each ping message: If an echo response message is not received by the
transmit end after the corresponding timer expires, a message reading "Request time
out" is displayed, indicating that an Eth-Trunk member interface fails. If an echo
response message is received, the data bytes, message sequence number, and response
time are displayed, indicating that no Eth-Trunk member interface fails.
l Final statistics: The statistics include the number of sent and received packets,
percentage of failure response packets, and minimum, maximum, and average response
times.
