CLI Commands to ping server IP from F5 version BIG-IP 9.4.8?

Hello Jacob,

 

I am unable to ping any IPs LTM F5 Version 9.4.8.

 

It gives an error that ping command invalid something.

 

If I only have read only access then what is command to test server reachability. Because I tried ping IP command & that not working.

 

Okay, so it seems as if you do not have permission. What permission level do you have? Guest? Are you in a custom shell? Do you have root access?

 

What does it say when you run the command: run util ping How about: run util bash. Once in bash, can you ping?

 

Thanks.

 

Hi there,

 

Just to clarify that I am understanding the question, what exactly do you mean by ping server?

 

Are you trying to establish if you have connectivity?

 

SSH into your BIG-IP using Putty or any SSH utility.

 

"ssh root@x.x.x.x", for example.

 

Once you have ssh'd into the BIG-IP use the command: ping x.x.x.x

 

Where x.x.x.x is the IP address of your server.

 

Are you possibly referring to establishing if there is a TCP connection?

 

To my knowledge the ping syntax did not change from BIG-IP version 9.x.x to current versions.

 

Hello Jacob,

Thanks
