Device Ping Collection

Use this task to schedule ping tests between two sets of routers or devices. Results of the SNMP collection are saved to the directory /u/wandl/data/ping/[date], where [date] is the date of the collection using the format yymmdd, with yy as the two character year, mm the two character month, and dd the two character day. Device Ping Collection task requires the source node to be in the live network (/u/wandl/data/.network). If not, the task will execute with an OK message but no data will be saved. View resulting web reports from the IP/MPLSView Web Interface, Performance Management > Network Performance > Ping.

Table 18: Device Ping Collection Parameters

Task Parameter	Description
Select Source Devices	Specify the source routers for the ping task. Every source router will ping every destination router.
Select Destination Devices	Specify the destination routers for the ping task. Every source router will ping every destination router.
Use Profile Directly	When the profile is modified outside the task, the routers collected by this task will be updated according to the modified profile.
Use Master Profile	Use the master profile which has the last successful logins for the router profiles of the live network.
Ping Repeat/Count Ping Pack Size(byte) Ping Type of Service (TOS, 0~255) Ping Hex Fill Pattern	These parameters are derived from the following commands: Cisco IOS command: ping IPaddress repeat pingCount size pingPacketSize data pingHexFillPattern Juniper JUNOS command:’ ping IPaddress count pingCount size pingPacketSize tos pingTOS pattern pingHexFillPattern interval 0.1 The following are also supported. Note that not every hardware uses all of the parameters: Cisco CRS/IOX, Cisco CRS/TACACS, Juniper ERX, Huawei, Foundry, Starent.
