To assign an ICMP ping template to a VPRN L3 access interface

Before you begin

ICMP ping templates are used to populate values for ICMP ping tests when the tests are used on L3 interfaces to control the operational state. ICMP ping templates are supported for IPv4 only. See To configure an ICMP Ping template for information about configuring ICMP ping templates.

Note: Nokia recommends that you assign an NE DoS protection policy, configured with a protocol of ICMP-Ping-Check, to the affected interfaces; see To assign an NE DoS or DDoS protection policy to a VPRN L3 access interface.
