Parameters
ip: Distinguishes between a destination host name and the ping command keywords if the name of
the destination host is i, ip, ipv, ipv6, m, mp, mpl, or mpls. For example, you must use the
command in the form of ping ip ip instead of ping ip if the destination host name is ip.
-a source-ip: Specifies an IP address of the device as the source IP address of ICMP echo requests.
If this option is not specified, the source IP address of ICMP echo requests is the primary IP address
of the outbound interface.
-c count: Specifies the number of ICMP echo requests that are sent to the destination. The value
range is 1 to 4294967295, and the default is 5.
-f: Sets the DF bit in the IP header.
-h ttl: Specifies the TTL value of ICMP echo requests. The value range is 1 to 255, and the default is
255.
-i interface-type interface-number: Specifies the source interface of ICMP echo requests. If this
option is not provided, the system uses the primary IP address of the matching route's egress
interface as the source interface of ICMP echo requests.
-m interval: Specifies the interval (in milliseconds) to send ICMP echo requests. The value range is 1
to 65535, and the default is 200.
