ip icmp source-interface

Enable the ICMP error and unreachable messages to be sent with the source interface IP address, such as the loopback address, instead of the hops of the preceding devices along the network path to be used for easy debugging and diagnosis of network disconnections and reachability problems with IPv4 packets.

Syntax	ip icmp source-interface interface
Parameters	interface	Enter one of the following keywords and slot/port or number

information:

• For a Management Ethernet interface, enter the keyword managementethernet.

NOTE: When you configure the capability to enable the loopback IP address to be sent for easy debugging and diagnosis (IP addresses of the devices for which the ICMP source interface is configured), the source IP address of the outgoing ICMP error message is modified, although the packets are not sent out using the configured interface. Because the management interface is configured without any parameters such as the IP address, it is treated to the management interface of the primary unit or the existing unit.

• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port information.

• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.
