o Ping Test --
The Ping Test is the most common test used to verify
basic connectivity to a networking device. Successful ping test results
indicate that both physical and virtual path connections exist between
the system and the test IP address. Successful ping tests do not
guarantee that all data message are allowed between the system and
the test IP address. Enter the IP address of the device to send an ICMP
ping to. IPv4 addresses only.
⇒
Select Ping
o Traceroute Test --
The Traceroute Test is used to track the
progress of a packet through the network. The test can be used to
verify that data destined for a WAN device reaches the remote IP
address via the desired path. Similarly, network paths internal to a
company can be traced over the LAN to verify the local network
topology. Enter the IP address of the device to send an ICMP ping to.
IPv4 addresses only.

Select Traceroute

address or subnet.
⇒
Select System --
Select Route --
Route allows the user to apply a static
route to the system.
o Apply Route --

Subnet Routing page.
