To verify connectivity for pass-through traffic
As a best practice, always verify connectivity for all devices in the network. For example, if you’ve configured a route policy to cause certain traffic from certain devices to be handled as pass-through or pass-through unshaped, you should also verify connectivity for these devices.

To verify network connectivity
Test network connectivity by using your applications. For example, do a CIFS mount or an FTP transfer.
