Required parameter. The destination node Id.

timeout

Optional parameter. The number of seconds to wait for a reply message. The valid range is from 1 to 60 seconds. The default value is 10 seconds.

Optional parameter. The data size to be included in the ping packet. The valid range for the data size is 5 to 586 octets. The default value is 100 octets.

An example atalk ping command could read as follows:

atalk ping 1.3 30 /d200

which would send a ping to node number 3 or network number 1, with a timeout value of 30 seconds, and the data size would be 200 octets.

state

The state of the port as it is in the process of coming up. Possible states include: listen - The port is listening to see if any other routers are out on the network. probing - The port is probing the network to see if its suggested AppleTalk address is unique, or if it is already in use.

get_info - The port is verifying network information and obtaining the default zone.
