Diagnostics Utilities
The wireless VPN firewall provides diagnostic tools that help you analyze the status of the
network and traffic conditions. Two types of tools are available:
• Network diagn
ostic tools. These tools include a ping utility, traceroute utility, and DNS
lookup utility, and the option to display the routing tables.
• Pack
et capture tool. This tools lets you capture packets per interface in real time for a
short period, and then download the packet information.
Note: For normal operation, diagnostic tools are not required.
To display the Diagnostics screen:
Select Monitoring > Diag
nostics.

Send a Ping Packet
Use the ping utility to send a ping packet request in order to check the connection between
the wireless VPN firewall and a specific IP address or FQDN. If the request times out (no
reply is received), it usually means that the destination is unreachable. However, some
network devices can be configured not to respond to a ping. The ping results are displayed
on a new screen.
