Node Ping Gateway
Tool
Use the node_script tool to run this skill:
node_script: node="<node>", skill="node-ping-gateway", script="ping-node-gateway.sh", args="<args>"
Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------|-------------|
| --interface IFACE | yes | Network interface to find gateway for |
| --source-ip | no | flag, auto-detect IP from interface, use as ping source (-I <ip>) |
| --source-dev | no | flag, use interface name as ping source (-I <iface>) |
| --count N | no | Number of ping packets (default: 3) |
--source-ip and --source-dev are mutually exclusive flags (no value needed).
Examples
node_script: node="nodepool-061", skill="node-ping-gateway", script="ping-node-gateway.sh", args="--interface bond0"
node_script: node="nodepool-061", skill="node-ping-gateway", script="ping-node-gateway.sh", args="--interface eth0 --source-ip"
node_script: node="nodepool-061", skill="node-ping-gateway", script="ping-node-gateway.sh", args="--interface eth0 --source-dev"
Switchdev Note
If the target interface is a PF in switchdev mode (e.g. eth0/eth1), ping will always fail — this is expected behavior, not a network problem. The PF acts as an embedded switch and cannot send or receive regular traffic.
What to do instead: run node-list-roce-pods on the node to find a RoCE pod,
then use pod-ping-gateway on that pod. This tests the actual VF data path.
See roce-diag-sriov-switchdev for full background.
See pod-ping-gateway for the pod version.
