## NAME
       snmpping - command an agent to ping a remote host

## SYNOPSIS
       **snmpget** [_COMMON_ _OPTIONS_] _AGENT_ _DESTINATION_

## DESCRIPTION
       **snmping** is an SNMP application that uses the DISMAN-PING-MIB to perform remote pings from the
       specified _AGENT_ to the remote _DESTINATION_.

       The local host will send SNMPSET commands to the _AGENT_ which, if accepted will then ping  the
       _DESTINATION_.

       **snmpping** will then poll the _AGENT_ to obtain the ping results.


## OPTIONS
### -Cc
              The _AGENT_ will send _pings_ pings to the _DESTINATION_.

### -Cs
              The _AGENT_ will send pings that are _size_ bytes.

       In  addition  to these options, **snmpping** takes the common options described in the [_snmpcmd(1)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/snmpcmd/1/markdown)_
       manual page.  Note that **snmpping**


## EXAMPLES
       The command:

           snmpping -c private zeus hera

       will get host **zeus** to ping host **hera**. Host **zeus** would need to have **private**  as  a  read-write
       community.
