I'm checking the ping connectivity checks from a host and that would ssh to another jump host and will perform ping communication. I would like to print the successful packets pinged count using awk.

xajvtl001:/home/root #ssh -qn xckvl002"ping -w2 -c3 xcvtc012| grep packets"
3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss

Expected output value is 3 from the packet received count.

If you have GNU grep: grep -oP 'd+(?= packets received)'

find the digits that are followed by " packets received"

If you are looking for the number of packets received:

ssh -qn xckvl002 "ping -w2 -c3 xcvtc012 | awk '/packets transmitted,/ print $4'"

Since you are using double quotes around the remote command, the inner single quotes lose their immediate quoting meaning, and thus characters like $ still need escaping. This is the reason for the backslash in print $4.

Note that implementations of ping can have different output.
In my case for instance, N packets received is Received = N instead. You might want to take care in making sure the search pattern, which is enclosed in slashes in my awk example, correctly identify the summary line.
Also, if there is a different number of whitespace-delimited fields in your output, you might have to use a different number than 4 for the $4 field variable.

EDIT: A solution using sed for those who are interested:

ssh -qn xckvl002 "ping -w2 -c3 xcvtc012 | sed -nr 's/.*([0-9]+)s*received,.*/1/p'"

I have used below command to find

en_linux_example j1]# ping -c3 hostname|awk '/received/print $0'| awk -F "," 'print $2'|sed -r "s/^s+//g"| awk 'print $1'

output
