Description
Option
(Optional) Sends the ping requests on the interface you specify. If you do not include this option,
ping requests are sent on all interfaces.
interface source-interface
(Optional) Bypasses the routing tables and sends the ping requests only to hosts on directly
attached interfaces. If the host is not on a directly attached interface, an error message is returned.
Use this option to ping a local system through an interface that has no route through it.
bypass-routing
(Optional) Limits the number of ping requests to send. Specify a count from
1
through
2,000,000,000
. If you do not specify a count, ping requests are continuously sent until you press
Ctrl-C.
countnumber
(Optional) Sets the Don't Fragment (DF) bit in the IP header of the ping request packet.
do-not-fragment
(Optional) Forces the ping requests to an IPv4 destination.
inet
(Optional) Forces the ping requests to an IPv6 destination.
inet6
(Optional) Sets the interval between ping requests, in seconds. Specify an interval from
0.1
through

no-resolve
(Optional) Includes the hexadecimal string you specify, in the ping request packet.
pattern string
(Optional) Sends ping requests rapidly. The results are reported in a single message, not in
individual messages for each ping request. By default, five ping requests are sent before the
