Functional Notes
The ping command helps diagnose basic IP network connectivity using the Packet InterNet Groper
program to repeatedly bounce Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo-request packets off a
system (using a specified IP address). The AOS allows executing a standard ping request to a specified IP
address or provides a set of prompts to configure a more specific ping configuration.
