Invoking an LSP ping server tool opens a tool output window in which output is written while the tool is running. The results are reported in a window similar to the results that are shown in LSP Ping All report that shows the test results for an Interface.

The results of an LSP ping server tool invocation are reported when all requests have been sent and when the originating device determines that the last response has been received or has timed-out. MPLS Manager does not analyze the results.

Receiving a successful LSP ping report verifies two things:

  • The source device from which the ping request was launched is reachable from MPLS Manager.

  • The source device is able to reach the destination device through the specified LDP LSP.
