When creating Remote Copy over IP (RCIP) links, you are provided the opportunity to

and ping the link ports to verify their validity and communication.

When pinging RCIP link ports:

You can click Details in the Port Configuration or Ping dialog boxes to show or hide

details about the configuration or ping operation, respectively.

If the MTU value of the ports is different, for example one value 1500 and the other value

If both ports' MTU values are 9000, Jumbo Ping is displayed as the Ping group box title.
