14.3 Ping
A Ping test is used to verify the status of a network connection after the RIP or static route function is
enabled. Ping sends a request message to the host and waits for a return message. This diagnostic
function can verify if the remote host is reachable. Ping can also measure the round-trip time to the
remote host.
Click Utilities on the Advanced menu bar, and click on the Ping tab on the main screen. After typing the
IP address and the ping data size, click Submit to perform the test. The ping result will display later.
The following is an example of the ping result.
