Hi Jinmei,

Nominally, XPING only returns the following information:

- Interface status (UP/DOWN/Does not exist)
- Protocols running on the interface (IPv4, IPv6)

Some additional information may be gleaned. We see this as a security issue and present mitigations. Please see the Security Considerations section.

                                                                 Ron
