8.6.3 Viewing Ping Statistics

Refer to the Ping Statistics tab for an overview of the overall success of the ping test with the destination IP addresses displayed within the screen. Use this information to determine whether the destination IP represents a device that could offer the switch a viable connection to either extend the switch’s existing radio coverage area or provide support for additional MUs within an existing network segment.

To view ping test statistics:

1.Select Diagnostics > Ping from the main menu.

2.Select the Statistics tab.

3. Refer to the following content within the Statistics tab to assess the connection with the target device:

Destination IP	Displays the numeric (non DNS address) destination for the device transmitted the ping
	packets.
Packets Sent	Displays the number of packets transmitted from the switch to the target device IP address.
	Compare this value with the number of packets received to assess the connection quality
	with the target device.
Packets Received	Displays the number of packets received back from the target device. If this number is
	significantly lower than the number sent to the target device from the switch, then consider
	removing this device from consideration for permanent connection with the switch.
Min RTT	Displays the quickest round trip time for ping packets transmitted from the switch to its
	destination IP address. This may reflect the time when data traffic was at its lightest for the
	two devices.
Max RTT	Displays the longest round trip time for ping packets transmitted from the switch to its
	destination IP address. This may reflect the time when data traffic was at its most congested
	for the two devices.
