Ping/Traceroute commands issue

Hi all,

I am trying to set up Quagga router as a BGP router for Looking Glass.
I am facing the following issue right now: when I log in to port 2601 in
order to run
ping or traceroute command I am getting the error message:

*Router:* BGP Router

*Command:* ping 4.2.2.2

% [ZEBRA] Unknown command: ping 4.2.2.2
Router>

Telnet to port 2605 for BGP commands is OK.

Could you please help me with this?

Thanks you so much in advance.

Log into the unix shell on the box that runs quagga, not to the quagga process.

The quagga processes do not implement ping or traceroute as a sub-command.

The error is informing you that the command ping is not available in the
shell.

You can use ping from the vtysh shell.

I do not know what a Looking Glass is (other than a mirror) but I don't
think it's relevant to what you're asking about anyway.

Regards,
Michael.

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback.
I have a web server which logs into the quagga via telnet, that's why I need ping/traceroute commands from there.
