Description
The

command test connection between the SSR and an IP host. The ping
command sends ICMP echo packets to the host you specify.
• If the packets reach the host, the host sends a ping response to the SSR and the CLI
displays messages stating that the host can be reached.
• If the host does not respond, the SSR assumes the host cannot be reached from the
SSR and the CLI display messages stating that the host did not reply.

ping.

suming that the host has not responded. The

soon as a ping reply is received. If you do not
specify the
flood

send a new request. The amount of time the
