Solved: NX-OS enable ping and traceroute

Bogotron1988 · ‎02-20-2016

Hello everyone!

At my new work i have a cisco nexus 5548 switch and i never work with it before.

Can anybody explain me how to enable "ping" or "traceroute" command on it?

P.S I hear it may be enabled with "(config)# feature" command...It's true?

Thx in advice

Hi,

You don't need enable any feature to use ping and traceroute commands.

Here the documentation about it:

Ping:

Traceroute:

Hello! Thank you :)

It was be TACACS+ with user account configuration.

Another thing which confirm - live and learn.
