Testing the network connectivity

You can test whether a particular host or gateway is reachable across an IP network.

To use the ping command

  • To use the ping command, enter the following:
    Network> ping destination [nodename]
[devicename] [packets]

    For example, you can ping host1 using node1:

    Network> ping host1 node1

    destination

    Specifies the host or gateway to send the information to.

    The destination field can contain either a DNS name or an IP address.

    nodename

    Specifies the nodename to ping from. To ping from any node, use any in the nodename field. The nodename field is an optional field. If nodename is omitted, any node is chosen to ping from.

    devicename

    Specifies the device through which you ping. To ping from any device in the cluster, use the any variable in the devicename field.

    packets

    Specifies the number of packets that should be sent to the destination.

    If the packets field is omitted, five packets are sent to the destination by default.

    The packets field must contain an unsigned integer.
