remote-ping Overview 

z 

z 

remote-ping  is a network diagnostic tool. It is used to test the performance of various protocols running 

in networks. remote-ping provides more functions than the ping command. 

z 

The ping command can only use the ICMP protocol to test the round trip time (RTT) between this 

end and a specified destination end for the user to judge whether the destination end is reachable. 

z 

Besides the above function of the ping command, remote-ping can also provide other functions, 

such as testing the status (open/close) of a DHCP/FTP/HTTP/SNMP server and the response time 

of various services. 

You need to configure remote-ping client and sometimes the corresponding remote-ping servers as well 

to perform various remote-ping tests. 

All remote-ping tests are initiated by a remote-ping client and you can view the test results on the 

remote-ping client only. 

When performing a remote-ping test, you need to configure a remote-ping test group on the 

remote-ping client. A remote-ping test group is a set of remote-ping test parameters. A test group 

contains several test parameters and is uniquely identified by an administrator name and a test tag. 

After creating a remote-ping test group and configuring the test parameters, you can then perform a 

remote-ping test by the test-enable command. 

z 

Being different from the ping command, remote-ping does not display the RTT or timeout status of 

each packet on the Console terminal in real time. To view the statistic results of your remote-ping 

test operation, you need to execute the display remote-ping command.  

z 

remote-ping also allows you to set parameters for remote-ping test groups, start remote-ping tests 

and view statistical test results through a network management device.
