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.

Examples

nx9500-6C8809#mint ping 68.88.0D.A7
MiNT ping 68.88.0D.A7 with 64 bytes of data.
 Response from 68.88.0D.A7: id=1 time=0.364 ms
 Response from 68.88.0D.A7: id=2 time=0.333 ms
 Response from 68.88.0D.A7: id=3 time=0.368 ms

--- 68.88.0D.A7 ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss
