Before proceeding, you must verify Appliance A1’s connectivity from its data path address to the next-hop and to the remote devices. This verifies that the cables are appropriately connected and that you haven’t misconfigured any of the IP addresses.
By default, Silver Peak uses the mgmt0 IP address as the source address for a ping. Depending on your network configuration and addressing scheme, this may give misleading results. To sidestep this issue, use the
-I option to specify the local device’s data path address as the ping’s source address.
