Re: Does arping exist on the i? -- MIDRANGE-L

arping (also called Send ARP Request- SNDARPRQS - in the IBM i CL command
language) was added in the 6.1 release. Unfortunately, the documentation
never made it into the Information Center.
Another topic added to the long list of things to cover in the i Can blog.

V5R4. Apparently, another reason to upgrade. But, when a corproate office
is preparing to junk the i, upgrades don't happen.

I have it. What version of the OS are you running?

My PC name is GDSL61. When I do a DSPDEVD of the 5250 session running
these commands I see:
Device description . . . . . . . . : ROBS1
Internet address . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.8.237

On the PC itself if I run IPCONFIG I see:
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : dekko-1
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.8.237
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.254.0

Subject: Does arping exist on the i?
Sent by: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx

I have been requested to create a 5250 session. The IP address seems to
already be assigned, as it is in a file searched by an exit point program

here that ties the IP to a specific device. A quick Google search
revealed a command named arping, intended to find out duplicate

addresses.

I don't see it, so far, on our v5r4 box. May be there. Or, may be a
different name.

Anybody know anything about arping?
