CM> man ping
Instance: Console Thread (0x80fdc670)
COMMAND: ping
USAGE: ping IpAddress
DESCRIPTION:
Pings the specified target IP address, sending 3
up to 5 seconds for a response. This is a basic 'standard' ping. For more options or control over ping parameters and behavior.
In order for this to work, the CM must either have successfully completed DHCP, or must otherwise have been configured with a valid IP address.
Note that this command causes the ping options to be reset to their default state.
This may be disabled if the platform doesn't provide an implementation of ping.
EXAMPLES:
