Does your DELL switch have UDP Ping?
Hello, I'm trying to do a UDP ping test on a Dell switch,
and I'm curious if the feature is supported. I checked the guide and found the following functions.
Can validate-reply be considered a UDP ping function?
For reference, I have the above command in OS9, but I couldn't find it in OS10.
Please let me know if what I found is wrong or if there is another way
No Events found!

Hi,
Traditionally, ICMP echo requests and ICMP echo responses are used for ping testing, and this is done under the ICMP protocol. I've never seen a UDP ping test before. "Validate reply" cannot be treated as a UDP ping function. https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/dell-emc-os-9/s3100-9.14.2.5-cli-pub/ping?guid=guid-606bfd8c-4e91-4d10-bb73-92e3c4e9193f&lang=en-us
If you want to see each host's UDP connections, you can use an analyzer or for example with the "netstat -n" command in Windows to server-side.
Hope it helps!
