74 Using Features of US110
ping Utility
The ping dialog box executes the ping diagnostic utility and displays response messages.
ping is a diagnostic tool that sends an echo request to a network host. The host parameter is either a
valid host name or an IP address. If the host is operational and on the network, it responds to the
echo request.
The ping utility sends one echo request per second and calculates round trip times and packet loss
statistics, and displays a brief summary upon completion of the calculation.
NOTE:
Not all network device will respond to ping packets, since this
is a common mechanism used in denial-of-service attacks. Lack of
response does not necessarily indicate that the target of the ping is
unusable for other purposes.
