Using Ping to Monitor Link Connectivity on a EVPN VPLS Network

Procedure

• Check the connectivity of an EVPN over MPLS LDP or EVPN over MPLS TE tunnel.

  Run ping evpn vpn-instance evpn-name mac mac-address [ -a source-ip | -c count | -m interval | -s packet-size | -t time-out | -r reply-mode | -nexthop nexthop-address ] ^*

  The device is configured to check the connectivity of an EVPN over MPLS LDP or EVPN over MPLS TE tunnel.

  <HUAWEI> ping evpn vpn-instance evpna mac 00e0-fc12-3456 -c 3 -s 200 
    Ping vpn-instance evpna mac 00e0-fc12-3456 : 200 data bytes, press CTRL_C to break  
      Reply from 1.1.1.1: bytes=200 sequence=1 time = 11ms    
      Reply from 1.1.1.1: bytes=200 sequence=2 time = 10ms    
      Reply from 1.1.1.1: bytes=200 sequence=3 time = 10ms

      3 packet(s) received    
      0.00% packet loss    
      round-trip min/avg/max = 10/10/11 ms

• Check the connectivity of an EVPN over VXLAN tunnel.

  Run ping evpn bridge-domain bd-id [ vlan vlan-id ] mac mac-address [ -a source-ip | -c count | -m interval | -s packet-size | -t time-out | -r reply-mode | -nexthop nexthop-address ] ^*

  The device is configured to check the connectivity of an EVPN over VXLAN tunnel.

  

  The VLAN cannot be specified if the MAC address learning is not in qualify mode.
