PING TEST

This test is used to check network

 

 

communications. This test sends link-level

 

 

packets to a remote network host, then waits

 

 

for an appropriate response. To run a ping

 

 

test, set the following items:

 

 

DEST IP: Specify the IP address of the

 

 

remote host. A valid IP address must be

 

 

entered. For example, 0.0.0.0 is not

 

 

allowed.

 

 

PACKET SIZE: Specify the size of each

 

 

packet, in bytes, to be sent to the remote

 

 

host. The minimum is 64 (default) and the

 

 

maximum is 2048.

 

 

TIMEOUT: Specify the length of time, in

 

 

seconds, to wait for a response from the

 

 

remote host. The default is 1 and the

 

 

maximum is 100.

 

 

COUNT: Specify the number of ping test

 

 

packets to send for this test. Select a

 

 

value from 1 to 100. To configure the test

 

 

to run continuously, select 0.

 

 

PRINT RESULTS: If the ping test was not

 

 

set for continuous operation, you can

 

 

choose to print the test results. Select

 

 

YES to print results. If you select NO

 

 

(default), results will not be printed.

 

 

EXECUTE: Specify whether to initiate the

 

 

ping test. Selet YES to initiate the test, or

 

 

NO to not run the test.
