Test the IPv4 or IPv6 Network Configuration

  • Use either the Oracle ILOM web interface or CLI to test the IPv4 or IPv6 network configuration.
    • From the Oracle ILOM web interface, perform these steps:
      1. From the ILOM Administration → Connectivity screen, click the Tools button at the bottom of the screen.

        The Network Configuration Test screen appears.


        image:This is an image of the Network Configuration                                                 Test screen, from which you can issue a Ping or                                                 Ping6 test.
      2. From the Test Type list box, select Ping (for an IPv4 configuration) or Ping6 (for an IPv6 network configuration).
      3. Type the IPv4 or IPv6 test destination address in the Destination field and click Test.

        If the test was successful, the message Ping of ip_address succeeded confirmation appears below the Destination field in the Network Configuration Test screen.

    • From the Oracle ILOM CLI, perform these steps:
      1. At the CLI prompt, type the show command to view the network test targets and properties.

        For example, the following output shows the test target properties:

        -> show
        /SP/network/test
        Targets:
        
        Properties:
         ping = (Cannot show property)
         ping6 = (Cannot show property)
        
        Commands:
         cd
         set
         show
      2. Use the set ping or set ping6 command to send a network test from the device to a network destination specified in the following table.
        Property
        Set Property Value
        Description
        ping
        set ping=<IPv4_address>
        Type the set ping= command at the command prompt followed by the IPv4 test destination address. For example: set ping=192.168.10.106
        Ping of 192.168.10.106 succeeded
        ping6
        set ping6= <IPv6_address>
        Type the set ping6= command followed by the IPv6 test destination address. For example: set ping6=2001::db8:5dff:febe:5000
        Ping of 2001::db8:5dff:febe:5000 succeeded
