Options

parameter required default choices comments
dest_ip yes
    		Destination IPv4 address or hostname
    interface no
      		Interface used to send traffic out
      max_range no 512
        		Max range of path MTU discovery. Must be 2^n.
        max_size no 1472
          		Start and max size for path MTU discovery.
          mode no None
            		mode of console connection (telnet/serial). If mode is not provided SSH connection is used.
            passwd no assumes ssh-key active
              		Login password
              port no 830
                		port number to use when connecting to the device
                routing_instance no
                  		Name of the routing instance to use to send the ping
                  source_ip no
                    		Source IPv4 address used to send the ping
                    ssh_private_key_file no None
                      		This can be used if you need to provide a private key rather than loading the key into the ssh-key-ring/environment. if your ssh-key requires a password, then you must provide it via **passwd**
                      timeout no 0
                        		Extend the NETCONF RPC timeout beyond the default value of 30 seconds. Set this value to accommodate pings that might take longer than the default timeout interval.
                        user no $USER
                          		Login username
