The following example tests the connection between IP addresses 192.168.10.1 and 192.168.20.1 over
VLAN 10 with an layer 2 class of service of 3.
portcmd --ping 8/ge0 -s 192.168.10.1 -d 192.168.20.1 -v 10 -c 3

Using portCmd traceroute

The portCmd traceroute command traces routes from a local Ethernet port (ge0 or ge1) to a
destination IP address. If you want to use this command to trace a route across a VLAN when you do not
have an active FCIP tunnel, you must manually add entries to the VLAN tag table on both the local and
remote sides of the route, using portCfg vlantag command:
portCmd --traceroute [slot]/ge0|ge1 -s source_ip -d destination_ip [-h max_hops]
[-f first_ttl][-q diffserv] [-w timeout] [-z size] [-v vlan_id] [-c L2_Cos]
where:
slot
ge0|ge1
-s source_ip
-d destination_ip
The number of a slot in a 4/256 SAN Director or DC Director
chassis that contains an FR4- 1 8i blade. This parameter does not
apply to the stand-alone 400 Multi-protocol Router.
The Ethernet port used by the tunnel (ge0 or ge1)
The source IP interface that originates the ping request.
The destination IP address for the ping request.
Generates a specified number of ping requests. The default is 4.
The DiffServ QoS. The default is 0 (zero). The value must be an
integer in the range from 0 through 255.
The time to live (TTL) for the ping packets. The ttl is decremented
every time a router handles the packet. If TTL reaches zero, the
packet is discarded. This prevents ping packets from circulating
forever and potentially flooding the network. The default value is
100.
Specifies the VLAN ID. Values must be in the range 1 - 4094. There
is no default value. Note that a VLAN tag entry must exist on the
local and remote sides prior to issuing the -v option. A VLAN Tag
table entry will be dynamically maintained by the ipperf application.
See the portCfg help page for details on creating a VLAN tag table.
The time to wait for the response of each ping request. This
parameter is specified in milliseconds and the default value is 5000
milliseconds (5 seconds). The maximum allowed wait time for ping is
9000 milliseconds (9 seconds).
The size in bytes of the ping packet to use. The total size cannot be
greater than the configured MTU size. You can use the portshow
ipif command to display the MTU size for ge0 or ge1. The default
size is 64 bytes.
Specifies Class of Service/Priority, as defined by IEEE 802.1p. Values
must be in the range between 0 and 7. The default is 0. This operand
is optional with the -v option.
The number of a slot in a 4/256 SAN Director or DC Director chassis
that contains an FR4- 1 8i blade. This parameter does not apply to the
stand-alone 400 Multi-protocol Router.
The Ethernet port used by the tunnel (ge0 or ge1)
The source IP interface that originates the traceroute request.
The destination IP address for the traceroute request.
