The remote ping functionality uses a sequence of SNMP Set and Get operations to configure a source device to send ICMP Echo requests. The SNMP Set operation writes remote ping entries to the device’s Ping MIB, and the SNMP Get operation reads the remote ping test results from the Ping MIB. MIBs access for remote ping identifies the device and MIB support for remote ping.
