Enter ping -s [IP_address] (of remote workstation) and wait for the result. This test passes if you see a
round trip time displayed in milliseconds. This test fails if you see a response similar to “Target does
not respond.”
If this test fails, then
• Have an associate perform tests 5-8 on the following pages.
• From a workstation on the local Ethernet, telnet to the remote Router, log in as root, and issue the
route command.
6.2.2 P ING FROM THE R EMOTE E THERNET
Now have an associate at the remote site perform similar tests. Refer to Figure 6-2.
5. From the remote Router, ping a workstation on the remote Ethernet.
On a remote Router, have an associate enter syslog on. Next have him enter ping -s [IP_address] (of
remote workstation) and wait for the result. This test passes if you see a round trip time displayed in
milliseconds. This test fails if you see a response similar to “Target does not respond.”
If this test fails, then
• Make sure that the remote workstation and remote Router are physically attached to the same
Ethernet, by checking the cables.
• Issue a ping to another host on the remote network. From the Router enter:
ping IP_address_of_a_remote_node
If the ping command displays the message:
Target did not respond
refer to Appendix C.
6. From the remote Router, ping the local Router. Wait up to 60 seconds, or less (for sync transmission)
for the result.
On a remote Router, have an associate enter syslog on. Next have your associate enter ping -s
[IP_address] (of local Router) and wait for the result. This test passes if you see a round-trip time
displayed in milliseconds. This test fails if you see a response similar to “Target does not respond.”
If this test fails, then
• Enter syslog on.
• Establish a dialup connection from the remote Router to the local Router. Use the -s option to
continuously transmit the ping.
On the remote Router, have your associate enter:
ping -s IP address of local_Router
Your associate should hear the modem dial, the local system answer, and a series of tones. When the
speaker turns off the connection is made. This process can take up to 30 seconds (or much shorter,
when using the sync0 interface). During this time the displayed response from the ping command is:
Target did not respond
