7.2 Ping
A Ping test is used to verify the status of a network connection after the RIP or static route
function is enabled. Ping sends a request message to the host and waits for a return message.
This diagnostic function can verify if the remote host is reachable. Ping can also measure the
round-trip time to the remote host.
To access the Ping test screen, click on the Ping tab on the Diagnostics screen.
Enter the Host Name or IP address of the remote terminal and click Submit to start the test
and display the results.
The following is an example of the ping result. The information is as follows:
Packets transmitted

Packets received
The number of packets that were received
Packets lost
The number of packets lost (transmitted or received)
Minimum round trip time
