Using the Ping Command to Verify Network Connectivity
This section provides brief descriptions of the ping command. The ping command allows you to verify that
a SPA port is functioning properly and to check the path between a specific port and connected devices at
various locations on the network. After you verify that the system and the SIP have booted successfully and
are operational, you can use this command to verify the status of the SPA ports. Refer to Cisco ASR 9000
Series Aggregation Services Router Getting Started Guide and Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services
Router Interface and Hardware Component Configuration Guide for more information on bringing up and
configuring the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router and the Cisco ASR 9000 SIP-700 or Cisco ASR 9000 SIP-500.
For more information on command syntax, refer to the publications listed in the Related Documentation, on
page xii for detailed command descriptions and examples.
The ping command sends an echo request out to a remote device at an IP address that you specify. After
sending a series of signals, the command waits a specified time for the remote device to echo the signals. Each
returned signal is displayed as an exclamation point (!) on the console terminal; each signal that is not returned
before the specified timeout is displayed as a period (.). A series of exclamation points (!!!!!) indicates a good
connection; a series of periods (.....) or the messages [timed out] or [failed] indicate that the connection failed.
Following is an example of a successful ping command to a remote server with the IP address 10.1.1.60:
Router# ping 10.1.1.60
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echoes to 10.1.1.60, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/15/64 ms
Router#
If the connection fails, verify that you have the correct IP address for the destination device and that the
destination device is active (powered on), and then repeat the ping command.
