This section describes some of the concepts related to the Admin screens.
5.1.1 Debugging (Ping and Traceroute)
The CGNVM provides a couple of tools to allow you to perform network diagnostics
on the LAN:
Ping: this tool allows you to enter an IP address and see if a computer (or other
network device) responds with that address on the network. The name comes
from the pulse that submarine SONAR emits when scanning for underwater
objects, since the process is rather similar. You can use this tool to see if an IP
address is in use, or to discover if a device (whose IP address you know) is
working properly.
