You can use ping/traceroute to test both numeric IP address or
domain name. If pinging/tracerouting the IP address is successful, but
pinging/tracerouting the domain name is not, you might have a name
resolution problem. In this case, ensure that the domain name you are
specifying can be resolved by using Domain Name System (DNS) queries.
