Usage Scenario
Using the ping vpls mac command, you can check the connectivity of Layer 2 forwarding links on the VPLS network.
If you do not care about the details of each reply packet and expect more intensive detection, you can specify the rapid parameter. In this case, all packets are sent at the same time and only the summary information is displayed in the result.Precautions
Before running the display vpls-ping statistics command to view statistics, run the reset vpls-ping statistics command to clear the existing statistics.
The actual command output varies according to the device. The command output here is only an example.
