Let me make sure I know what you're asking. e0-----RouterA-------(serial)------RouterB---e0
You want to verify that a host on the ethernet network on A can reach a host on the Router B ethernet network? If so, perhaps extended ping is what you're looking for: routerA#ping Protocol [ip]: Target IP address: Repeat count [5]: Datagram size [100]: Timeout in seconds [2]: Extended commands [n]: y Source address or interface: ethernet0 Type of service [0]: Set DF bit in IP header? [no]: Validate reply data? [no]: Data pattern [0xABCD]: Loose, Strict, Record, Timestamp, Verbose[none]: Sweep range of sizes [n]: Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to , timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 24/26/28 ms routerA# Is that what you're looking for or are you trying to do something else?

Can anybody tell me how test connectivity between two ethernet interfaces using ping or trace if there are no host attached to those interfaces?
