Verifying Connectivity Between Virtual Chassis Member Devices
Purpose
Verify that a member device is reachable through the Virtual Chassis.
Action
- Run a Virtual Chassis device reachability test:
user@switch> request virtual-chassis device-reachability test-name name source-fpc source-fpc-id destination-fpc destination-fpc-id - View the test results that appear on the screen:

Meaning
The test results confirm that the connection between the member devices within the Virtual Chassis is operating properly. The Packets Count/Sent/Received/Sendfail output shows that five ping packets were sent and five ping packets were returned. The Unknown/Timedout/Duplicate packets received field output shows that zero ping packets errors occurred during the test. The Round-trip Min/Avg/Max output shows that all of the test packets took between 181 and 3010 microseconds to traverse the path.
