FIGURE 1 Superping and fcPing paths
In the following example, Superping is invoked using the fcPing --allpaths command to destination
domain 165. The following example displays each hop in (Domain1/Index1-> Domain2/Index2)
format. To reach destination domain 165 from source domain 3 there are two unique end-to-end
paths. In the first path, the frame traverses from egress port index 205 on source domain 3 to
ingress port index 25 on domain 207. On domain 207, the frame traverses from egress port index
42 to ingress port index 3 in domain 101. On domain 101, the frame goes from egress port index
16 to ingress port index 99 on domain 165.

Superping can isolate links with failures so that you can further investigate these ISLs to determine
the exact links giving the errors.
NOTE
Superping provides an indication if all ISLs are covered. If all the ISLs are not covered, you can
increase the coverage count and maximum retries to transmit, so that complete coverage of all ISLs
is achieved.
