ip: Choose IP ICMP packet.
ipx: Choose IPX packet.
ipx-add: IPX address of the destination host.
Description
Using ping command, you can check the IP network connection and the reachability of
the host.
By default, when the parameters are not specified:
z The ECHO-REQUEST message will be sent for 5 times.
z socket is not in DEBUGGING mode.
z The TTL value for echo requests is 255.
z host will be treated as IP address first. If it is not an IP address, perform domain
name resolution.
z The default padding operation starts from 0x01 and ends on 0x09 (progressively),
then performs again.
z Show all the information including statistics.
z Routes are not recorded.
z Send ECHO-REQUEST according to route selection.
z Default length of ECHO-REQUEST is 56 bytes.
z Default timeout of ECHO-RESPONSE is 2000ms.
z Do not display other ICMP packets (non ECHO-RESPONSE).
z The TOS value of echo requests is 0.
The ping command sends ICMP ECHO-REQUEST message to the destination. If the
network to the destination works well, then the destination host will send ICMP
ECHO-REPLY to the source host after receiving ICMP ECHO-REQUEST.
Perform ping command to troubleshoot the network connection and line quality. The
output information includes:
z Responses to each of the ECHO-REQUEST messages. If the response message
is not received until timeout, output "Request time out". Or display response
message bytes, packet sequence number, TTL and response time.
z The final statistics, including number of sent packets, number of response packets
received, percentage of non-response packets and minimal/maximum/average
value of response time.
If the network transmission rate is too low, you can increase the response message
timeout.
