Field descriptions
ping
When debugging connectivity problems, a ping only indicates low-level
connectivity. If an external ping works but higher-level applications such as DCS,
CMS, or INTUITY do not, then you can only assume that there is connectivity to
the board. Interrogate the switch for other clues as to why the higher-level
application is not working.
Destination
Fixed field giving the destination of the route. The destination is a
name administered on the Node Name form which can include the
keyword “Default,” indicating the default route.
Gateway
The node name of the Gateway by which the Destination can be
reached. The Gateway must be a name administered on the
Node Name form.
C-LAN Board/Pt
The circuit pack location for the circuit pack that provides the
interface for the route.
Interface
■ pppn
represents one of the PPP interfaces on the C-LAN,
which is administered as port n+1.
■ cpm0
represents the ethernet interface on the C-LAN which is
administered as port 17.
■ lo0
represents the loopback interface on the C-LAN which
does not need to be administered.
