icmpEchoReq OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The number of milliseconds it takes for an ICMP
echo request to respond. IcmpEchoReq is
-1 if there is an internal error,
-2 if the echo request timed out,
-3 if the echo reply is not the correct reply,
-4 if the packet size is too large, and
-5 if the timeout is invalid.
To request the ICMP response time for IP address
a1.a2.a3.a4 with a timeout of t and a packet size of s,
send a request for icmpEchoReq.s.t.a1.a2.a3.a4.
For example, suppose one wanted to find out the number
of milliseconds it took to ping 15.2.112.113, with time
out of 8 seconds, and packet size of 75. Accordingly,
icmpEchoReq.75.8.15.2.112.113 would identify the number
of milliseconds.
This MIB object is there only to provide for backward
compatibility. A new MIB object is provided which does not
violate the SNMP standards too,
'icmp.icmpEchoReqTable.icmpEchoReqEntry.icmpEchoReqTime'.
This new MIB object is recommended to be used to achieve the
same funtionality as provided by this (icmp.icmpEchoReq)
MIB object."
