DNPING(1) General Commands Manual DNPING(1)NAMEdnping - Loopbacks diagnostic packets through a remote nodeSYNOPSISdnping nodename [user pass] count or dnping nodename [options] nodename Options: [qsv] [-c number] [-i interval] [-p password] [-s size] [-u username] [-w timeout]DESCRIPTIONThis utility sends to remote DECnet node nodename the number of packets specified by count to test the link between the two systems. Optionally a username and password may be specified for the connection as well as several other options. NOTE that if you dnping another Linux box it must have dnetd running. NOTE also that dnping is not really like an IP "ping" in that it needs a registered object at the other end to connect to. So, just because you cannot ping a machine does not, necessarily, mean that machine is not available, just that the MIRROR object is not available. There is not (to my knowledge) a low-level equivalent in DECnet of the ICMP ping message.OPTIONS-c number Number of packets to send (default 10) -d Debug mode (default off) -i interval interval between packets in microseconds (default 0) -p password Access control password. If this is "-" then you will be prompted. -q Quiet mode (default off) -s size size of frame to send in bytes (40 data + 68 hdr) -t timestamps mode (default off) -u username access control username -w timeout Specifies a timeout (in seconds). If not response is received after this time then dnping will abort. The default is to wait for- ever. -v verbose mode (default off)EXAMPLESPings 10 packets through remote node "mv3100" # dnping mv3100 10 Make it look a bit like IP ping: # dnping -vti 1000000 marshaSEE ALSOdntype(1), dndir(1), dndel(1), dntask(1), sethost(1), dnetd(8) DECnet utilities January 25 2000 DNPING(1)
