Tracing The Route; Example - Ping Command; Example: Ping Monitoring And Snmp Notifications - LEGRAND Server Technology PRO3X User Manual

Options
timeout
<number3>
The command looks like the following when it includes all options:
diag> ping <host> count <number1> size <number2> timeout <number3>

Tracing the Route

This command syntax traces the network route between your PRO3X and a network host.
diag> traceroute <host> <useICMP> <timeout>
Variables:
• •
<host> is the name or IP address of the host you want to trace.
• •
<useICMP> is optional. It has only one value -- useICMP. Type useICMP in the end of this
command only when you want to use ICMP packets rather than UDP packets.
• •
<timeout> is the maximum amount of time (in seconds) until traceroute will be terminated (1..900).

Example - Ping Command

The following command checks the network connectivity of the host 192.168.84.222 by sending the
ICMP ECHO_REQUEST message to the host for 5 times. You can also use ipv6 address to check the
connectivity.
diag> ping 192.168.84.222 count 5
ping fd07:a47c:0000:823e:3b02:0000:982b:0463
count 5

Example: Ping Monitoring and SNMP Notifications

In this illustration, it is assumed that a significant PDU (IP address: 192.168.84.95) shall be monitored by
your PRO3X to make sure that PDU is properly operating all the time, and the PRO3X must send out
SNMP notifications (trap or inform) if that PDU is declared unreachable due to power or network
failure. The prerequisite for this example is that the power sources are different between your PRO3X
and the monitored PDU.
This requires the following two steps.

Description
Determines the waiting period before timeout. <number3> is
an integer number in seconds ranging from 1 to 600.
