Vro, vswitches, and other devices are the core of the small and medium-sized enterprise network. They are responsible for the interconnection of various devices in the network and the forwarding of network communication packets. However, when a problem occurs, many network administrators only PING the destination address on the client or detect network faults, to learn more about the feedback from PING on the Routing Switching Device console, I will talk about the application of PING extension in enterprise Routing Switching and Intranet management from my personal experience.
I. How to Use PING on a route switch device:
PING on a common computer is different from PING on a routing switch device. To detect network conditions, perform the following operations.
Step 1: connect to the routing switch device through telnet or a Super Terminal.
Step 2: after entering the routing switch management interface, we can smoothly use the PING tool to solve network problems in both common mode, configuration mode, and advanced mode, even if the routing switch device divides the permissions of the connected account, the PING command is still included in the GUEST tourist account with the lowest permissions. (1)
Step 3: The PING command on the routing switch device supports many parameters? You can view it.
Step 4: In the routing switch device console, enter "ping IP Address" and press enter to implement the most basic and simple PING. (2)
Step 5: of course, in normal mode, we can also perform basic detection by using the PING value in VLAN mode. (3)
Step 6: after entering an interface, you can also use the PING value in interface mode to check the network smoothness. (4)
Therefore, PING is very flexible in routing and switching devices. From the above, we know at least three PING methods, namely, in common mode, VLAN mode and interface mode. So what are the differences between PING in these three modes? Next, let's take a look at the working principle of PING on the routing switch device.
