Using Built-In Diagnostic Tools
Use the
System Management > Diagnostic
page to access two built-in tools, DNS
Name Lookup and Ping. If you suspect a problem with connectivity, you can use
these tools to investigate.
To open this page:
Click
System Management > Diagnostic
.
Choose
DNS Name Lookup
if you know a DNS name and want to learn the IP
address. Choose
Ping
to test the connectivity to a particular IP address on the
Internet.
DNS Name Lookup
Choose this option to test connectivity to the DNS server that you specified on the
Setup > Network
page, or to look up an IP address that you want to use in the Ping
test.
In the
Look up the name
field, enter a host name, such as www.cisco.com. Do not
include a prefix such as
http://.
Then click
Go
. If the test is successful, the IP
address of the host appears.
NOTE
This tool requires that the router can connect to a valid DNS server, based on the
WAN interface settings (
Setup > Network
page).
