  • Page 187: Ping

    Ping A ping request is an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request packet. The switch sup- ports both ICMP for sending ping requests to IPv4 addresses and ICMPv6 for sending ping requests to IPv6 addresses. Ping IPv4 Use the Ping IPv4 page to send one or more ping requests from the switch to a specified IPv4 address. You can use the ping request to check whether the switch can communicate with a particular host on an IP network.

    Field Description Source IP The source IP address to use when sending a ping request. This field is enabled when IP Address is Address selected as the source option. Interface The interface to use when sending a ping request. This field is enabled when Interface is selected as the source option.
  • Page 189 Table 103.Ping IPv6 Fields Field Description Ping Select either a global IPv6 address or a link local address to ping. A global address is routable over the Internet, while a link-local address is intended for communication only within the local network. Link local addresses have a prefix of fe80::/64.
  • Page 190: Traceroute

    Traceroute Traceroute is a diagnostic tool that provides information about the route a packet takes from the switch to a specific IPv4 or IPv6 address as well as the amount of time it takes for the packet to reach its des- tination.
  • Page 191 Table 104.Traceroute IPv4 Fields Field Description IP Address The IP address of the system to attempt to reach. Probes Per Traceroute works by sending UDP packets with increasing Time-To-Live (TTL) values. Specify the number of probes sent with each TTL. MaxTTL The maximum Time-To-Live (TTL).
  • Page 192: Traceroute Ipv6

    Traceroute IPv6 Use this page to determine the Layer 3 path a packet takes from the device to a specific IPv6 address or hostname. When you initiate the traceroute command by clicking the Start button, the device sends a series of traceroute probes toward the destination. The results list the IP address of each Layer 3 device a probe passes through until it reaches its destination - or fails to reach its destination and is discarded.
  • Page 193 Field Description Port The UDP destination port number to be used in probe packets. The port number should be a port that the target host is not listening on, so that when the probe reaches the destination, it responds with an ICMP Port Unreachable message.
