info icmp

Purpose

Displays statistics related to Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) activity.

Statistics that display are gathered since the statistic tables were last cleared by rebooting the Digi device, and include data, event, and error counts. These statistics are useful in understanding how the device is operating and can be helpful in finding problems. In particular, if an error counter is found to be increasing there may be a problem with the device.

To reset the statistics, reboot the device.

Required permissions

For Digi products with two or more users, set permissions to set permissions display=execute to use this command. See set permissions for details on setting user permissions for commands.
