IP Ping Test
An IP Ping test can be run to test connectivity between the FrameSaver unit and
any FrameSaver unit, router, or NMS to which it has a route. In addition, the test
can be run to access a remote unit for configuration purposes.
Times when you might want to run an IP Ping test are:
To test connectivity between the FrameSaver unit and any FrameSaver unit in
the network to verify that the path is operational. Select
to ping
any far-end FrameSaver unit.
To verify the entire path between a newly installed remote site FrameSaver
unit and the central site NMS. During a remote site installation, an IP Ping test
is typically run from the remote site to ping the NMS at the central site. The
remote FrameSaver unit must have SNMP trap managers configured, and one
of those trap managers must be the central site NMS. Select
ping the NMS at the central site.
To test the path to the NMS trap managers during installation of the central site
FrameSaver unit. The remote FrameSaver unit must have configured the
SNMP trap managers to be sent the ping. Select
to ping the
SNMP trap managers.
To remotely complete setup of a FrameSaver unit following its physical
installation performed in leased-line mode. When five IP Ping tests are run
consecutively within a 5-second period, the unit automatically switches to
frame relay mode so frame relay parameters can be entered and setup can be
completed.
Procedure 1
To ping any far-end FrameSaver unit:
1. Select the IP Ping test.
Main Menu
→
Test
→
IP Ping
2. Enter the IP Address of the device the ping is being sent to, then select Start.
NOTE:
If the FrameSaver unit has just initialized, or the far-end unit has just
initialized, it may take about a minute for the units to learn the routes via
the proprietary RIP.
If accessing the unit remotely to enter or change frame relay parameters, send
the ping five times in a row, in rapid succession; the unit will be operating in
frame relay mode.
3. Verify the results of the IP Ping test.
— While the test is running,
In Progress...
appears in the Status field.
— When the test is finished,
Alive. Latency =
nn
ms
should appear as
the Status (
nn
being the amount of time the test took in milliseconds).
If any other message is displayed, additional testing will be required.
