6. 2. Test the Network Connectivity
Diagnostics is used to test the connectivity between the AP device and the host or
other network devices.
The device provides Ping and Traceroute tools to help you troubleshoot network
connectivity problems. The Ping tool sends packets to a target IP address and logs
the results, such as the number of packets sent/received, and the round-trip time. The
Traceroute tool sends packets to a target IP address and displays the number of hops
and time to reach the destination. You can ping and traceroute a local device by its IP
address.
