Switch Management Commands
2180
Default Configuration
The default mode is IPv4. The command defaults to an IPv4 address.
The default ping count is 4.
The default interval is 1 second.
The default packet size is 0 data bytes.
The packet size is specified in bytes and refers to the packet payload, not the
frame size.
Packets are padded to extend the frame to the minimum legal frame length
by default.
Command Mode
User Exec mode, Privileged Exec mode
User Guidelines
If the ipv6 or ip parameter is specified, all the other arguments must match
(i.e., it is not possible to ping an IPv6 address from an IPv4 source and vice-
versa).
The
ipv6 parameter must be specified if an IPv6 address is entered.
Otherwise, the command will interpret the IPv6 address as a hostname
parameter.
The switch can be pinged from a remote IPv4/IPv6 host with which the
switch is connected through the default VLAN (VLAN 1) or another VLAN, if
configured, as long as there is a physical path between the switch and the
host.
Use the optional
interface keyword to ping an IPv6 link-local interface by
using the IPv6 link-local address or the global IPv6 address of the interface as
the destination address in the ICMP echo packet.
Use the
source keyword to specify the source IPv6 address to use in the ping
packet and to specify the source interface on which to transmit the ICMP
packet. The source can be a loopback, tunnel, logical interface, or the out-of-
band interface.
