Ping Screen
From this screen you can send a PING request to another network device whose network address you already know.
This is useful to verify network connectivity.
As with other PING applications, you must enter the IP address of the other network device in the IP field and then
select the desired payload size. Pressing the
<Send>
button will send the PING. A status line will provide information
on whether or not the PING was successful by displaying a
"Success"
or
"Fail"
message. There is a 20 second
timeout for a response before a
"Success"
or
"Fail"
message may appear.
Please be aware that there are some limitations on this PING implementation:
!
The size of PING payload is limited to 99 bytes. If a payload of greater than that is entered, a data error
message will be displayed.
The delay to wait for response is fixed at 20 seconds.
