Extron electronics XTP II CrossPoint Series User Manual

Pinging to Determine the Extron IP Address
The ping utility is available at the Command prompt. Ping tests the Ethernet interface
between the computer and the XTP II CrossPoint switcher. Ping can also be used to
determine the actual numeric IP address from an alias and to determine the Web address.
Ping the switcher as follows:
1. Search for cmd in the taskbar (Windows 10) or the Start menu (Windows 10-Vista).
2. Select cmd.
3. At the C:\ prompt, type ping < IP address> and then press <Enter>. The computer
returns a display similar to the one shown in figure 88.

Figure 88. Typical Ping Response
The line Pinging ... reports the actual numeric IP address, regardless of whether you
entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias name.
Pinging to Determine the Web IP Address
The ping utility has a modifier, -a, that directs the command to return the Web address
rather than the numeric IP address.
At the C:\ prompt, type ping -a <IP address> and then press <Enter>. The return
display is similar to the ping response shown in figure 88, except that when you specify the
-a modifier, the line Pinging mail... reports the Web IP address rather than the numeric
IP address, regardless of whether you entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias
name.
