response when initiated from the CLI and Web interfaces.
Using the options described below, you can specify the number and size of Echo Requests and the interval between
Echo Requests.
Example: The following are examples of the CLI command.
Example: ping success:
(Broadcom FASTPATH Routing) #ping 10.254.2.160 count 3 interval 1 size 255
Pinging 10.254.2.160 with 255 bytes of data:
Received response for icmp_seq = 0. time= 275268 usec
Received response for icmp_seq = 1. time= 274009 usec
Received response for icmp_seq = 2. time= 279459 usec
----10.254.2.160 PING statistics----
3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip (msec) min/avg/max = 274/279/276
Example: ping failure:
In Case of Unreachable Destination:
(Broadcom FASTPATH Routing) # ping 192.168.254.222 count 3 interval 1 size 255
Pinging 192.168.254.222 with 255 bytes of data:
