Chapter 6: Verification

This chapter contains information about how to verify that your provisioning procedures result in a
functional switch.

Pinging an IP device

You can ping a device to test the connection between Ethernet Routing Switch 4000 and another
network device. After you ping a device, the switch sends an Internet Control Message Protocol
(ICMP) packet to the target device. If the device receives the packet, it sends a ping reply. After the
switch receives the reply, a message appears that indicates traffic can reach the specified IP
address. If the switch does not receive a reply, the message indicates the address does not
respond.
