Pinging Individual MUs

The Mobility 7131 Access Point can verify its link with an MU by sending WNMP ping packets to the

associated MU. Use the Echo Test screen to specify a target MU and configure the parameters of

the ping test.

NOTE

An echo test initiated from the Mobility 7131 Access Point MU Stats Summary screen uses WNMP

pings. Therefore, target clients that are not Brocade Mobility MUs are unable to respond to the echo

test.

To ping a specific MU to assess its connection with an Mobility 7131 Access Point:

1. Select Status and Statistics - > MU Stats from the Mobility 7131 Access Point menu tree.

2. Select the Echo Test button from within the MU Stats Summary screen

3. Specify the following ping test parameters.

4. Click the Ping button to begin transmitting ping packets to the station address specified.

Refer to the Number of Responses parameter to assess the number of responses from the

target MU versus the number of pings transmitted by the Mobility 7131 Access Point. Use

the ratio of packets sent versus packets received to assess the link quality between MU

and the Mobility 7131 Access Point

Click the Ok button to exit the Echo Test screen and return to the MU Stats Summary

screen.
