Examples of clic_probe

Some examples of using clic_probe are shown below.

Example 1

If the local node is bently6 and you want to send five packets to verify that the adapter clic0 (which is on bently6) is able to handle traffic, issue this command:

clic_probe -l -c clic0 -p 5

The generated output could look like this:

CLIC_PROBE: 256 byte packets

Local Loopback: Source and Target Adapter ID: bently6.corp 3.com:clic0

256 bytes: seq_num = 1. Packet Acknowledged.

256 bytes: seq_num = 2. Packet Acknowledged.

256 bytes: seq_num = 3. Packet Acknowledged.

256 bytes: seq_num = 4. Packet Acknowledged.

256 bytes: seq_num = 5. Packet Acknowledged.

--------- bently6.corp3.com CLIC_PROBE Statistics --------

5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss.

Example 2

If the local node is bently6, and you want to verify communications with the remote node bently4, issue this command:

clic_probe bently4
