I would like to setup a generic script to test to see if an IP address is up by running a ping test 5 times. Got that part from the examples. However, I would like to run the script with a parameter. The parameter would be the IP address I wanted to test.

This would greatly cut down the number of scripts I would have to maintain.

Thanks

I think that this will work:
:global ip; :set ip "xxx.yyy.zzz.www"; /system script run ping_script

and ping_script uses the $ip variable...

it works quite fine for passing values from script to console

Thanks

Not as clean as I would like, but it works great.
