OSI Ping Responses
Site Manager displays one of the following messages when you issue an OSI ping.
(If you enter a value other than 0 for Retries, Site Manager displays one of the
following messages for the default ping plus one for each additional ping.)
• An “alive” message appears if the router receives a CLNP echo response from
the target device within the timeout allowed. A sample message follows:
OSI ping: 49000400000a12121200 is alive
• A target address “is unreachable” message appears if the local router cannot
find the specified address in its routing table. A sample message follows:
OSI ping: 49000400000a12121200 is unreachable
