network This feature is helpful in determining whether an operational path
exists between the adapter and another network node.

adapter to ping. If your network has a domain name server, you can
enter the node’s domain name in place of the IP address.
2. If you want the utility to make continuous ping requests, click
Continuous . If you leave this blank, the utility issues four pings.

4. If you selected the Continuous option, you must click Stop to stop the
pings. If you did not select the option, the test automatically stops after
four pings.
