Introduction
This chapter describes the commands used to configure ping polling. The following table lists
the default values when configuring a ping poll.
active
This command enables a ping poll instance. The polling instance sends ICMP echo requests to
the device with the IP address specified by the
ip
command.
By default, polling instances are disabled. When a polling instance is enabled, it assumes that the
device it is polling is unreachable.
The
no
form disables a ping poll instance. The polling instance no longer sends ICMP echo
requests to the polled device. This also resets all counters for this polling instance.
