Pinging an IP device
Ping a device to test the connection between the Nortel Ethernet Routing
Switch 8600 and another network device. After you ping a device, the
switch sends an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packet to the
target device. If the device receives the packet, it sends a ping reply.
After the switch receives the reply, a message appears indicating you can
reach the specified IP address. If the switch does not receive a reply, the
message indicates the address is not responding.
Procedure steps
