Pinging a Remote System

procedure is useful in determining whether a valid link exists between
the switch and another device.

To ping a network device, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Home Page, select Monitoring.

2. From the Monitoring menu, select Utilities.

3. Select the Ping Client tab.

The Ping Client tab is shown in Figure 9.

The results of the ping are displayed in a popup window.
