Perform ping command to troubleshoot the network connection and line quality. The
output information includes:
z Responses to each of the ECHO-REQUEST messages. If the response message
is not received until timeout, output "Request time out". Or display response
message bytes, packet sequence number, TTL and response time.
z The final statistics, including number of sent packets, number of response packets
received, percentage of non-response packets and minimal/maximum/average
value of response time.
If the network transmission rate is too low, you can increase the response message
timeout.
Related command: tracert.
