Step Two: Pinging for a Web Address
2.Write down the web address returned by the ping command (In the example in Figure 6.3 corinex.com is the web address). This web address is the web address assigned to the IP address you just pinged. While the IP address of mail could conceivably change, it is likely that this web address will not.

3.Replace your ISP’s abbreviated server address with this extended web address in the corresponding Internet application (web browser, e-mail application, etc.).
Once you have replaced the brief server address with the true server | 101 |
| |
address, the Router should have no problem accessing the Internet |
|
through that Internet application. |
