Note

Note

This command and its syntax is common to both the User Executable and Privilege Executable configuration modes.

Supported in the following platforms:

Syntax

mint [ping|traceroute]

mint ping <MINT-ID> {(count <1-10000>|size <1-64000>|timeout <1-10>)}

mint traceroute <MINT-ID> {(destination-port <1-65535>|max-hops <1-255>|
source-port <1-65535>|timeout <1-255>)}

Parameters

mint ping <MINT-ID> {(count <1-10000>|size <1-64000>|timeout <1-10>)}
ping <MINT-ID> Sends a MiNT echo message to a specified destination
  • <MINT-ID> – Specify the destination device's MiNT ID.
count <1-10000> Optional. Sets the number of ping packets sent to the specified MiNT destination
  • <1-60> – Specify a value from 1 - 10000. The default is 3.
size <1-64000> Optional. Sets the MiNT payload size in bytes
  • <1-64000> – Specify a value from 1 - 640000. The default is 64 bytes.
timeout <1-10> Optional. Sets a response time in seconds
  • <1-10> – Specify a value from 1 sec - 10 sec. The default is 1 second.
 
mint traceroute <MINT-ID> {(destination-port <1-65535>|max-hops <1-255>|
source-port <1-65535>|timeout <1-255>)}
traceroute <MINT-ID> Prints the route packets trace to a device
  • <MINT-ID> – Specify the destination device's MiNT ID.
destination-port <1-65535> Optional. Sets the Equal-cost Multi-path (ECMP) routing destination port
  • <1-65535> – Specify a value from 1 - 65535. The default port is 45.
max-hops <1-255> Optional. Sets the maximum number of hops a traceroute packet traverses in the forward direction
  • <1-255> – Specify a value from 1 - 255. The default is 30.
source-port <1-65535> Optional. Sets the ECMP source port
  • <1-65535> – Specify a value from 1 - 65535. The default port is 45.
timeout <1-255> Optional. Sets the minimum response time period in seconds
  • <1-65535> – Specify a value from 1 sec - 255 sec. The default is 30 seconds.
