aesa_ping
ATM End System Address Pingping any ATM end station connected to a PNNI network.
The aesa_ping command lets you ping an AESA based on an ATM address that you provide as a
destination address. If you specify only the destination address, the local node merely looks up that
address in its routing tab le . To actuall y confirm the reachability of an o ther node, specify the opti on al
parameters for setting up a S V C t o s en d an d rec eive keep-alive packets.
