I do this at work in several different ways for each type of technology we
use. for the routers. i have a simple unix shell script which logs into
the router does a "show ip int brie" and then save the output to a file and
grep each line for the IP of the interfaces. then just use a loop to ping
each intfce. this saves me tons of time as we have so many routers and so
many int on each router. The automated script takes well over an hour to
run.

A sample script would be this.

#!/bin/sh
user="username"
pass="password"

  {
   sleep 2
   echo $user
   sleep 2
   echo $pass
   sleep 1
   echo "show ip interface brief"
   sleep 1
   echo "exit"
   } | telnet $IP |tee Results #this tee command will save all output to a
file called "Results"

# this will search the output for only lines which are up and save them into
a file called int_ip
grep "up" temp | cut -c28-43 | tee -a int_ip

THis will loop the ping comand for each int and save bad ones into a temp
file to notify you which ones are down.

Count=`grep -c "\." int_ip"

while [ $Count -gt 0 ]; do
 Count=`expr ${Count} - 1`
  INT_IP=`sed -n "1p" int_ip` this will get the IP from the list and use it
to Ping this does nto cahnge the file

sleep 2
ping $INT_IP 1 | tee -a Ping_Results

  `sed "1d" int_ip | cat > int_ip` this will remove the first line from the
list
done

cat Ping_Results | grep "no" #this will list any interface which you
could not ping

Not sure if this is what you were looking for. but hope it helps in some
way.

Guys/Gals,

How do you construct a "ping script" so that I can ping all interfaces from
each router? I tried writing a series of ping statements but that don't
work.

Thanks!
