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.

202.108.22.5) or Domain name (such as http://www.smc.com)
