(4) Connectivity test against FTP server
You can perform connectivity test with an FTP server.
Before connectivity test
Prior to running a connectivity test, save the current settings using the [SAVE] button on the [SETUP MENU: NETWORK]
screen. If you fail to press the [SAVE] button, the network settings are not updated.
Connectivity test by PING
Tests if a target FTP server can be found on the network.
Press the [PING TEST] button. A packet is sent to the IP address
of the FTP server.
If the packet reaches the server and it returns a response, the
message “COMPLETED” is displayed.
Note: The message “ERROR” is displayed if there is no
response from the server within a predetermined time.
Performing Connectivity Test by PING
When no response is returned for PING test
There may be no response to PING if security mechanism such as packet filter, firewall or security gateway is
introduced. Restart the DS-L3 before disabling server’s security mechanism and retrying the test.
Even though no response is returned to PING, if you are sure you can login to the server by using [LOGIN] – [TEST]
described below, connection to the FTP server has no problem.
Login test
Tests if you can login to a target FTP server.
Press the [LOGIN TEST] button to log in to the FTP server with
the specified user name and password.
If login is successful, “COMPLETED” is displayed
Note: The message “ERROR” is displayed if the server denies
login. If you cannot log in to the server, check settings of
both this system and the server.
Performing Login Test

against an FTP server.
