Checking Connectivity

To check connectivity on any switching module port, perform these tasks:

Task	Command
• Ping a host.	ping host
• If the host is unresponsive, check the IP address of the switch and default IP route, if appropriate.	show interface show ip route

For example, to ping a host named server1, enter this command:

Console> ping server1 

server1 is alive

Console>
