execute ping

This command runs a ping request to a host by specifying its IPv4 address. Pings are often used to test IP-layer connectivity during troubleshooting.

Syntax

Execute ping <IPADDRESS>

Example

This example pings a host with the IP address 192.0.2.10.

execute ping 192.0.2.10

The CLI displays the following:

PING 192.0.2.10 (192.0.2.10): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 192.0.2.10: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=0.5 ms
64 bytes from 192.0.2.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=0.2 ms
64 bytes from 192.0.2.10: icmp_seq=2 ttl=128 time=0.2 ms
64 bytes from 192.0.2.10: icmp_seq=3 ttl=128 time=0.2 ms
64 bytes from 192.0.2.10: icmp_seq=4 ttl=128 time=0.2 ms

--- 192.0.2.10 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.2/0.2/0.5 ms

The results indicate that a route exists between the FortiWeb Manager and 192.0.2.10. It also indicates that during the sample period, there was no packet loss, and the average response time was 0.2 milliseconds.
