entry. If another router is designated as the default gateway, then the
switch will pass packets to this router for any unknown hosts or subnets.
To configure a default gateway, use the static routing table as described on
page 447, enter 0.0.0.0 for the IP address and subnet mask, and then
specify this switch itself or another router as the gateway.
USING THE PING
FUNCTION
Use the IP > General > Ping page to send ICMP echo request packets to
another node on the network.
CLI REFERENCES

PARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed in the web interface:
◆ IP Address – IP address of the host.
◆ Probe Count – Number of packets to send. (Range: 1-16)
◆ Packet Size – Number of bytes in a packet. (Range: 32-512 bytes)
The actual packet size will be eight bytes larger than the size specified
because the switch adds header information.

reached.
◆ The following are some results of the ping command:
■
Normal response - The normal response occurs in one to ten
seconds, depending on network traffic.
■
Destination does not respond - If the host does not respond, a
“timeout” appears in ten seconds.
■
Destination unreachable - The gateway for this destination indicates
that the destination is unreachable.
■
Network or host unreachable - The gateway found no corresponding
entry in the route table.
