Description
Ping Test
Optional Setting
This allows you to specify an IP / FQDN and the test interface (LAN, WAN,
or Auto), so system will try to ping the specified device to test whether it is
alive after clicking on the Ping button. A test result window will appear
beneath it.
Tracert Test
Optional setting
Trace route (tracert)
command is a network diagnostic tool for displaying the
route (path) and measuring transit delays of packets across an IP network.
Trace route proceeds until all (three) sent packets are lost for more than
twice, then the connection is lost and the route cannot be evaluated.
First, you need to specify an IP / FQDN, the test interface (LAN, WAN, or
Auto) and the protocol (UDP or ICMP), and by default, it is UDP.
Then, system will try to trace the specified host to test whether it is alive
after clicking on Tracert button. A test result window will appear beneath
it.
Wake on LAN
Optional setting
Wake on LAN (WOL) is an Ethernet networking standard that allows
a computer to be turned on or awakened by a network message. You can
specify the MAC address of the computer, in your LAN network, to be
remotely turned on by clicking on the Wake up command button.
