Checking the Configuration
VIP in Cisco 7500 Series Routers
The example of the show interfaces fastethernet command shows information specific to a Fast
Ethernet interface on the PA-2FE in slot 3:
Router# show interfaces fastethernet 3/0/0
FastEthernet3/0/0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is cyBus FastEthernet Interface, address is 0030.f233.a900 (bia 0030.f233.a900)
Internet address is 7.7.7.7/24
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec,
Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set
Keepalive set (10 sec)
Half-duplex, 100Mb/s, 100BaseTX/FX
ARP type:ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00
Last input never, output 00:00:05, output hang never
Last clearing of "show interface" counters never
Queueing strategy:fifo
Output queue 0/40, 0 drops; input queue 0/75, 0 drops
5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec
Using the ping Command to Verify Network Connectivity
Using the ping command, you can verify that an interface port is functioning properly. This section
provides a brief description of this command. Refer to the publications listed in the
Documentation" section on page viii
The ping command sends echo request packets out to a remote device at an IP address that you specify.
After sending an echo request, the system waits a specified time for the remote device to reply. Each
echo reply is displayed as an exclamation point (!) on the console terminal; each request that is not
returned before the specified timeout is displayed as a period (.). A series of exclamation points (!!!!!)
indicates a good connection; a series of periods (.....) or the messages [timed out] or [failed] indicate a
bad connection.
Following is an example of a successful ping command to a remote server with the address 10.0.0.1:
Router# ping 10.0.0.1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.0.0.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/4 ms
