nslookup { hostname ip_address }

Performs a domain name system lookup for a specified host.

•The hostname argument is the name of the host for which you want DNS information; for example, nslookup klaatu.

•The ip_address argument is the IP address, in dotted decimal notation, of the device for which you want DNS information.

ping [-ssize] [-ccount]{ hostname ip_address }

Causes the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to issue a series of ICMP Echo requests for the device with the specified name or IP address.

•The hostname argument is the name of the device you want to ping; for example, ping ftp.netopia.com.

•The ip_address argument is the IP address, in dotted decimal notation, of the device you want to locate. If a host using the specified name or IP address is active, it returns one or more ICMP Echo replies, confirming that it is accessible from your network.

•The -ssize argument lets you specify the size of the ICMP packet.

•The -ccount argument lets you specify the number of ICMP packets generated for the ping request. Values greater than 250 are truncated to 250.

You can use the ping command to determine whether a hostname or IP address is already in use on your network. You cannot use the ping command to ping the Motorola Netopia® Gateway’s own IP address.
