7.4.6.2. Ping test
The Ping test provides the ability to test connectivity to an Internet host. You may enter the IP
address of an Internet host and this test will try to reach that Internet host by sending a Ping
(ICMP Echo Request) packet and then waiting for a Ping reply (ICMP Echo Reply) from that
Internet host. This test provides you with Internet connectivity information between
OmniConnect/ISDN access device and hosts connected on the Internet including the
connectivity path through your ISP.
The Ping screen allows you to enter the IP
address of the Internet host. Enter a valid IP
address followed by the OK button to start the
ping test.
7.4.6.3. ISDN Loopback
The ISDN Loopback test performs an ISDN loopback from the OmniConnect/ISDN
connection to the ISDN dial tone provider. This test checks the ISDN switch configuration,
phone numbers and SPID numbers entered by you. Once you ask the OmniConnect/ISDN
access device to execute this test, it will perform an ISDN loopback operation and report the
results back to you.
7.4.7. Firmware upgrade
The OmniConnect/ISDN monitor utility allows firmware upgrades to be performed over the
network. This feature is accessed from the Actions toolbar item. Once the Firmware Upgrade

The user is asked to provide the location of the hex file that is to be downloaded to the
OmniConnect access device. Once this is complete, a warning dialog box appears warning the
user that the FLASH download will complete and overwrite existing data.
