Call Testing and TCP/IP Tools

Two test selections—Manual Call and Internet Setup Test—are available for testing call placement and session connection with remote hosts. Both tests cause a call to be placed to a remote node and display the progress of the connection. Manual Call (command 5) prompts the user to specify the desired remote node by its profile number in Menu 11. Internet Setup Test (command 11) automatically calls the remote node that has been specified as an ISP.

Enter 11 to select the Internet Setup Test, or enter 5 to select another remote node. This test checks to see if your Internet access or remote node configuration has been done correctly. The router dials the node, performs authentication, and establishes a connection. If everything is working properly, you receive an appropriate response. If you receive an error message, note the error message and consult your network administrator.

Figure 9-2 illustrates an example of a trace display for a successful call when using a TCP/IP protocol connection.
