<h1 class="topictitle1">Ping from a character-based interface</h1>
|

|
|
<div><p>You can use the PING command from the character-based interface
|
||
|
|
to test your TCP/IP connectivity.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"> <p>Use the PING command to test your TCP/IP connectivity. For example,
|
||
|
|
if you want to test whether your data is traveling from your server to an
|
||
|
|
interface with IP address 10.5.5.1 and host name FIRSTHOST, type <samp class="codeph">PING
|
||
|
|
'10.5.5.1'</samp> or <samp class="codeph">PING <em>firsthost</em></samp> at the command
|
||
|
|
line.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can specify either the IP address or host name of the remote
|
||
|
|
node you want to reach. Ping appends the local domain to a host name if a
|
||
|
|
domain name is not specified or if a period (.) does not appear at the end
|
||
|
|
of the specified host name.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>A successful Ping means your packets are
|
||
|
|
reaching the 10.5.5.1 interface. An unsuccessful Ping indicates there is a
|
||
|
|
problem with the connectivity between your server and interface 10.5.5.1.</p>
