Model 5399 Remote Access Concentrator Network Administrator's Guide for UNIX
Table B-12. Arguments for the ping Command (continued)
Argument Description
–t Traces the path of a packet from the local host to the destination
host and back, displaying information about each router in the
path. This option allows you to see whether a packet arrived at
and/or returned from its remote destination and, if not, where it
stopped. The option is based on the Traceroute facility
described in RFC 1393.
You can use –t with the –r and/or –v argument(s), but not with
–a.
–v Displays the IP and ICMP packet headers for the reply from the
host.
host The host, router, or 5399 RAC to which the ping is sent.
databytes The number of bytes of data in the ICMP Echo Request
message. The default is 56.
