Pinging a Remote System
This procedure instructs the switch to ping a node on your network. This
procedure is useful in determining whether an active link exists between
the switch and another network device.
Note
The device you are pinging must be a member of the Default VLAN
and within the same local area network as your switch. In other
words, the port on the switch through which the node is
communicating with the switch must be an untagged or tagged
member of the Default VLAN.
To ping a network device, do the following procedure:
1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, select the Tools
folder.
The Tools folder expands.
2. From the Tools folder, select Ping.
The Ping Test Configuration Page is displayed. See Figure 13.

format.
