Yes, but talk about vague.
'E - Transmission of the echo packet to the target address failed'.
So what exactly does that mean I wonder? In what way did it fail? I got
this response in a lab scenario I was doing earlier, I forget what I
changed to correct the problem, but I thought it had something to do
with not having a route to the destination. However if that were the
case, I should have gotten: RRRRR
Fred, could you or anyone else shed more light on this?
