About Ping Paths

A ping path is a route from the ELAT controller to any edge device. Ping paths may optionally be tracerouted.

Like RTP paths, if Ping paths are tracerouted, the routers discovered are represented in the Path Details View for any selected path. In this display it will show their ingress and egress interfaces along with other information. The last IP address on the path always belongs to a Layer 2 edge device. By contrast, a ping path without traceroute is a route from the Controller to a target device through a "cloud" of unknown network nodes.

Adding Ping Tests Automatically

If routers on your network are SNMP-enabled and you know their read community strings, the best option is to let the ELAT Controller discover network paths automatically. To do so, select Discover Ping Tests from the Network Tests menu

or click the toolbar icon .

The Controller discovers all subnets within a range defined in Parts of Network to Discover page of the Configuration Wizard. An initial Ping is sent from the Controller to all end-points in those subnets. When you complete and close the wizard, select Network Tests > Discover Ping Tests to automatically add Ping tests in the Network Paths View for all of the endpoints that respond to the initial Ping.

Adding Ping Tests Manually

If you cannot discover paths automatically, or you want to add paths leading to subnets that could not be discovered, select Add Ping Test item from the Network

Paths menu or click the toolbar icon .
