l2 ping ip-address
Trigger a Layer 2 ping, which acts like a native ping. Enable Connectivity Fault Management
(CFM) to debug Layer 2. It can also help you debug ARP problems by providing the ability to
troubleshoot next hop ARP records.
Command Parameters
- burst-count <1-200>
- Specifies the burst count.
- data-tlv-size <0-400>
- Specifies the data
Type-Length-Value (TLV) size. The default is 0.
- frame-size <64-1500>
- Specifies the frame size. The
default is 0.
- priority <0-7>
- Specifies the priority. The
default is 7.
- source-mode <nodal|smltVirtual>
- Specifies the source mode of nodal
or smltVirtual. Nodal MPs provide both MEP and MIP functionality for SPBM
deployments. Nodal MPs are associated with a B-VLAN and are VLAN encapsulated
packets. The switch supports SMLT interaction with SPBM. The platform uses two
B-VIDs into the core from each pair of SMLT terminating nodes. Both nodes
advertise the Nodal B-MAC into the core on both B-VIDS. In addition each node
advertises the SMLT virtual B-MAC on one of the two B-VLANs. The default is
nodal.
- testfill-pattern
<all-zero|all-zero-crc|pseudo-random-bit-sequence|pseudo-random-bit-sequence-crc>
- Specifies the testfill pattern.
Range is: all-zero: null signal without cyclic redundancy check; all-zero-crc:
null signal with cyclic redundancy check with 32-bit polynomial;
pseudo-random-bit-sequence: PRBS without cyclic redundancy check; or
pseudo-random-bit-sequence-crc: PBRS with cyclic redundancy check with 32-bit
polynomial. A cyclic redundancy check is a code that detects errors. The default
is all-zero.
- time-out <1-10>
- Specifies the interval in seconds.
The default is 3.
- vrf WORD<1-16>
- Specifies the VRF name.
- WORD<0-255>
- Specifies the IP address.
Usage Guidelines
The source-mode
smltVirtual parameter does not apply to 5320 Series.
