Note: We recommend that you change the default password before connecting the
instrument to a network.
How to:

See Chapter 12.4.4, "Password management", on page 370.
Ping client
The "Ping Client" page provides the ping utility to verify the connection between the
LXI-compliant instrument and another device.
The ping is initiated from the instrument. Using the ICMP echo request and echo reply
packets, this function checks whether the communication with a device via LAN is
working. Ping is useful for the diagnosis of IP network or router failures.
To initiate a ping at the instrument:
1. On the "Ping Client" page, enter the IP address of the host in the "Destination
Address" field (for example 10.113.1.151).
2. Select "Submit".
