Parameters
-c count: Specifies the number of echo requests to be sent, in the range of 0 to 2147483647 and
defaulting to 5. The value of 0 indicates that echo requests are continuously sent until you manually stop
sending them.
-t timeout: Specifies the timeout value in seconds of an echo reply. The value range is 1 to 10 and defaults
to 5. If the source does not receive an echo reply within the timeout period, it considers the echo reply
timed out.
fcid fcid: Specifies the destination address. If the destination is a node, the fcid argument indicates the FC
address of the node. If the destination is an FC switch, the fcid argument indicates the domain controller
address FFFCxx of the switch, where xx is the domain ID of the destination switch. For example, if the
domain ID of the destination switch is 3, its domain controller address is FFFC03.
vsan vsan-id: Specifies a VSAN by its number in the range of 1 to 3839.
