Using the Configuration Utility (continued)
Console Interface > Utilities for Network debugging
The DSA-5100
console interface
provides several
utilities to assist the
Administrator. The
utilities provided are
described as follows:
Ping host (IP)
By sending an ICMP
echo request, a
specific target can be
tested.
Trace routing path
Trace the routing path to a specific target.
Display interface settings
Displays each network interface setting including the MAC address, IP address, and
netmask.
Display the routing table
The internal routing table of the DSA-5100 is displayed to assist the confirmation of
the successful setup of another static route on the DSA-5100.
Display ARP table
The internal ARP table of the DSA-5100 is displayed.
Display system up time
The system up time of the DSA-5100 is displayed.
Check service status
The current status of each service on the DSA-5100.
Set device into ‘safe mode’
If the administrator is unable to use the Web Management Interface, through a Web
browser, then he/she can choose this utility and set the DSA-5100 into safe mode.
The administrator can then manage this device with a Web browser again.
Synchronize clock with NTP server
Specify and immediately check and correct the clock through the NTP protocol and
network time server. Since the DSA-5100 does not support manual setup for its internal
clock, you need to configure the internal clock through NTP.
