Managing Routers and BNX Platforms
7-28
If the router receives a response to a ping after it has timed out, it does not
send an “alive” message to Site Manager.
4. In the Retries field, enter the number of successive times the router
should repeat the ping. The default for Retries is 0.
The router does not wait for the timeout before it sends the next ping.
5. In the Packet Size field, enter the number of bytes of data to send with
each ping. The default is 16 bytes, and the maximum is 585 bytes.
6. Click on Ping.
AppleTalk Ping Responses
Site Manager displays one of the following messages when you issue an
AppleTalk ping (if you enter a value 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 response from the target
device within the timeout allowed. The message also indicates the size of the
test packet. A sample message follows:
AppleTalk ping: 2553.217 is alive (size = 16 bytes)
• A “does not respond” message appears if the address of the target device is
resolved, but the system did not receive a response from the target device
within the timeout allowed. A sample message follows:
AppleTalk ping: 2553.217 does not respond
• A target address “is unreachable” message appears if the router cannot find
the specified address in its routing table. A sample message follows:
AppleTalk ping: 2553.217 is unreachable
• A “resource error” message appears if the router cannot allocate a buffer for
the request because no buffers are available. A sample message follows:
AppleTalk ping: resource error
• An “invalid parameter specified” message appears if you specify an invalid
parameter when you issue an AppleTalk ping. A sample message follows:
AppleTalk ping: invalid parameter specified
• An “AppleTalk service is not running” message appears if the AppleTalk
service is not enabled on the router. A sample message follows:
AppleTalk ping: Appletalk service is not running
