Using the ping Command for ISDN Connections
To check the availability of a remote device in an ISDN network, you can use the
ping
command. The
ping
command sends an Internet Control Message Protocol
(ICMP) echo request to a remote address that you specify. You can issue this
command by using the Site Manager Administration option, Ping from Router; by
using the Technician Interface; or by using the BCC.
Call setups for dial connections require more time than setups for ISDN
connections. When you ping a remote device using the default timeout value, 5
seconds, it may fail because the router does not wait long enough for a response
from the remote device. Therefore, you may want to increase the timeout value so
that the router will allow enough time for a response.
For information about using the
ping
command, see Configuring and Managing
Routers with Site Manager, or Using Technician Interface Software.
