determine if another device can be accessed from the zNID.

Parameter Description
IP Address or Domain
Name The destination address can be entered as a dot notation
IP address (i.e. 135.20.3.40) or a Domain Name to be
looked up on the configured Domain Name Server.
Length of packet The number of bytes in the IP Payload portion of the
packet. Additional bytes for packet overhead are
normally added as well so the length of the overall
packet is longer. Setting the value larger than 64 can
determine problems in a network that restrict large
packets. The default is 64. Setting the value larger than
64 can determine problems in a network that restrict
large packets. The default is 64.
Count The number of pings to be sent before the test
completes. A large number will allow the user to verify
network connectivity during certain testing. The default
is 4.
