one of the following messages for the default ping, plus one for each additional
ping:
ping:
•
An “alive” message: This message appears if the system receives an ICMP
echo response from the target device within the timeout allowed. The message
also indicates the size of the test packet. A sample message follows:
echo response from the target device within the timeout allowed. The message
also indicates the size of the test packet. A sample message follows:
ping: 192.32.1.151 is alive (size = 16 bytes)
•
A “does not respond” message: This message appears if the system does not
receive an ICMP echo response from the target device within the timeout
allowed. A sample message follows:
receive an ICMP echo response from the target device within the timeout
allowed. A sample message follows:
ping: 193.32.1.151 does not respond
•
An “ICMP host unreachable from y.y.y.y” message: This message appears if
the Versalar 15000 or the remote router whose address is y.y.y.y cannot
forward the ping request any further along the path to the target device. A
sample message follows, where 192.32.243.1 is the address of the ICMP host:
the Versalar 15000 or the remote router whose address is y.y.y.y cannot
forward the ping request any further along the path to the target device. A
sample message follows, where 192.32.243.1 is the address of the ICMP host:
ping: ICMP host unreachable from 192.32.243.1
•
A “target address is unreachable” message: The local Versalar 15000
previously issued an “ICMP host unreachable from y.y.y.y” message. Within
40 seconds, the local Versalar 15000 received a subsequent ICMP echo
request addressed to the same target device. ARP timed out or the address
could not be resolved. A sample message follows:
