Pinging
To ensure that the BPS 2000 has connectivity to the network, ping a device you
know is connected to this network.
ping command
The ping command tests the network connection to another network device. The
command sends an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packet from the
switch to the target device. The local IP address must be set before issuing the
ping command.
The syntax for the
ping command is:
ping <XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX>
The ping command is in the exec command mode.
Table 11 describes the parameters and variables for the
ping command.
