DGS-1520 Series Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Switch Web UI Reference Guide Ping Ping is a small program that sends ICMP Echo packets to the IP address you specify. The destination node then responds to or "echoes" the packets sent from the Switch. This is very useful to verify connectivity between the Switch and other nodes on the network. To view the following window, click Tools > Ping, as shown below: Figure 13-26 Ping Window The fields that can be configured in IPv4 Ping are described below: Parameter Target IPv4 Address Domain Name Ping Times Timeout Source IPv4 Address Description Select and enter the IPv4 address to be pinged. Select and enter the domain name of the system to discover. Enter the number of times desired to attempt to Ping the IPv4 address configured in this window. Users may enter a number of times between 1 and 255. Tick the Infinite check box to keep sending ICMP Echo packets to the specified IP address until the program is stopped. Select a timeout period between 1 and 99 seconds for this Ping message to reach its destination. If the packet fails to find the IP address in this specified time, the Ping packet will be dropped. Enter the source IPv4 address. If the current Switch has more than one IP address, you can enter one of them to this field. When entered, this IPv4 address will be used as the packets' source IP address sent to the remote host, or as primary IP address. Click the Start button to initiate the Ping Test for each individual section. The fields that can be configured in IPv6 Ping are described below: Parameter Target IPv6 Address Domain Name Description Select and enter the IPv6 address to be pinged. If the IPv6 address is a link-local address or a multicast address, the IP interface name needs to be specified in the following format: IPV6-ADDRESS%INTERFACE-ID. For example, ff02::1%vlan110. Select and enter the domain name of the system to discover. 532
