Usage Guidelines
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
The privileged ping (packet internet groper function) command provides a
complete ping facility for users who have system privileges. The ping
command sends AppleTalk Echo Protocol (AEP) datagrams to other AppleTalk
nodes to verify connectivity and measure round-trip times.
Only an interface that supports HearSelf can respond to packets generated at
a local console and directed to an interface on the same router. The Cisco
IOS software only supports HearSelf on Ethernet.
If the system cannot map an address for a host name, it will return an
"%Unrecognized host or address" error message.
To abort a ping session, type the escape sequence. By default, this is
Ctrl-^ X. You enter this by simultaneously pressing the Ctrl, Shift, and 6
keys, letting go, and then pressing the X key.
Table 2 describes the test characters displayed in ping responses.
