Connectivity Check

IPv4 Gateway Address

An IPv4 gateway configuration specified for a stream.

Corresponding CLI command: PS_IPV4GATEWAY

# IPv4 Gateway Address
await stream.gateway.ipv4.set(gateway=ipaddress.IPv4Address("10.10.10.1"))

resp = await stream.gateway.ipv4.get()
resp.gateway

IPv6 Gateway Address

An IPv6 gateway configuration specified for a stream.

Corresponding CLI command: PS_IPV6GATEWAY

# IPv6 Gateway Address
await stream.gateway.ipv6.set(gateway=ipaddress.IPv6Address("::0001"))

resp = await stream.gateway.ipv6.get()
resp.gateway

ARP Resolve Peer Address

Generates an outgoing ARP request on the test port. The packet header for the stream must contain an IP protocol segment, and the destination IP address is used in the ARP request. If there is a gateway IP address specified for the port and it is on a different subnet than the destination IP address in the packet header, then the gateway IP address is used instead. The framing of the ARP request matches the packet header, including any VLAN protocol segments. This command does not generate an immediate result, but waits until an ARP reply is received on the test port. If no reply is received within 500 milliseconds, it returns.

Note

You need to make sure either the port has a correct gateway or the stream has a correct destination IP address to ARP resolve the MAC address.

Corresponding CLI command: PS_ARPREQUEST

# ARP Resolve Peer Address
# You need to make sure either the port has a correct gateway or the stream has a correct destination IP address to ARP resolve the MAC address.
resp = await stream.request.arp.get()
resp.mac_address

PING Check IP Peer

Generates an outgoing ping request using the ICMP protocol on the test port. The packet header for the stream must contain an IP protocol segment, with valid source and destination IP addresses. The framing of the ping request matches the packet header, including any VLAN protocol segments, and the destination MAC address must also be valid, possibly containing a value obtained with PS_ARPREQUEST. This command does not generate an immediate result, but waits until a ping reply is received on the test port.

Note

You need to make sure either the port has a correct gateway or the stream has a correct destination IP address to ping.

Corresponding CLI command: PS_PINGREQUEST

# PING Check IP Peer
# You need to make sure either the port has a correct gateway or the stream has a correct destination IP address to ping.
resp = await stream.request.ping.get()
resp.delay
resp.time_to_live
