Chapter 5 PNNI Commands

aesa_ping

ATM End Station Address Ping—confirm the connection from a node to an ATM End Station.
The aesa_ping command lets you ping any ATM end station address (AESA) connected to a PNNI
network. Use this command to check PNNI connectivity to the given destination address. You can use
the optional arguments -setupcall, -qos, -trace, and -data to send packets and provide greater
granularity to the information that the command sends to the screen.
The parameters that you enter in the aesa_ping command don't specify anything except the execution
of the command itself. All behaviors started by the command stop when the interval -timeout expires.
