By default, the command options that are shown in Default LSP ping command lines invoked for LSP ping server tool invocations are included in the LSP ping command lines that are created for LSP ping server tool invocations.

Table 1. Default LSP ping command lines invoked for LSP ping server tool invocations

Vendor

LSP ping command line

Cisco

ping mpls ipv4 destination-address destination-mask [repeat 5] [timeout 2]      [size 100] [interval 0]

Juniper M/T

ping mpls ldp destination-address [count 5]

Note:

The LSP ping functionality is built on the CLI tool framework that is described in Chapter 10, “Building CLI-Based Server Tools on the CLI Framework.” Using LSP ping is described in the MPLS Management Suite User Guide.

Each LSP ping command line that is created for a newly invoked “LSP Ping” or “LSP Ping All” server tool invocation inherits the global values that are specified in the pinglsp-ondemand.asl file. The file is located in the BASEDIR/smarts/rules/ics/directory in the Global Manager installation area.

The global values that are specified in this file are listed in Global command option values in the pinglsp-ondemand.asl file.
