Table 8-5. Ping Options (2 of 2)

Encapsulation

Available Settings: Routed

Default Setting: Routed

Specifies the IP encapsulation used by the data stream. This read-only field specifies that the IP encapsulation used is RFC 1490/RFC 2427 routed Network Level Protocol IDentifier (NLPID) encapsulation, and not SubNetwork Access Protocol (SNAP) encapsulation.

Display Conditions – This setting does not appear when Destination Interface is set to

Use_Internal_Route.

Routed – The encapsulation is routed NLPID.

TOS Byte

Available Settings: A predefined COS ID, or a user-defined binary value 0000–1111

Default Setting: User Defined – 000000

(Release 2.1.) Specifies the TOS (Terms Of Service) byte to be used with the ping packet. Select from COS (Class Of Service) definitions, if any exist, or specify a binary value. When a COS definition is selected, the TOS byte value is read-only. If you select a COS definition that has multiple COS IDs, the lowest value is used as the TOS byte. See Configuring Class of Service Definitions in Chapter 4, Configuration Options.

0000–1111– The value of the TOS byte.

Packet Size

Available Settings: 36–4096

Default Setting: 100

Specifies the size of the ping packet including the IP header (20 bytes) and the ICMP header (8 bytes).

1–4096– Packet size.

Iteration Count

Available Settings: 1–999999

Default Setting: 5

Specifies the number of pings to send.

1–999999– Number of pings.

Inter-Ping Delay

Available Settings: 1–900

Default Setting: 1

Specifies, in seconds, the amount of time to wait between pings.

1–900– The ping wait time.

Response Timeout

Available Settings: 1–60

Default Setting: 2

Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, to wait before a host that has not responded to a ping is declared unreachable.

1–60– The response timeout period.
