Using the ping Command to Verify Network Connectivity

	Using the ping command, you can verify that an interface port is functioning properly. This section
	provides a brief description of this command. Refer to the publications listed in the “Related
	Documentation” section on page viii for detailed command descriptions and examples.
	The ping command sends echo request packets out to a remote device at an IP address that you specify.
	After sending an echo request, the system waits a specified time for the remote device to reply. Each
	echo reply is displayed as an exclamation point (!) on the console terminal; each request that is not
	returned before the specified timeout is displayed as a period (.). A series of exclamation points (!!!!!)
	indicates a good connection; a series of periods (.....) or the messages [timed out] or [failed] indicate a
	bad connection.
	Following is an example of a successful ping command to a remote server with the address 10.0.0.1:
	Router# ping 10.0.0.1
	Type escape sequence to abort.
	Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.0.0.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
	!!!!!
	Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/4 ms
	Router#
	Router#ping 10.0.0.2
