11: Network Diagnostics Network > Diagnostics The diagnostics feature allows you to run network utilities and cable diagnostics commands from the web interface. Table 11-21 describes each of the network utilities. Table 11-22 describes the cable diagnostics status messages. Note: The cable diagnostics command will bring down the Ethernet port link, which will take more time to complete the test. Cable diagnostics is only accurate for cable lengths of 7 - 120 meters. Network Utility Ping Traceroute Nslookup Table 11-21 Diagnostics - Network Utilities Description IP Address or fully qualified domain name to be pinged. Ping determines network connection between gateway and host on the network. The output shows if the response was received, packets transmitted and received, and packet loss if any. IP Address or fully qualified domain name Traceroute displays all the routers present between the destination IP address and the gateway. The output shows all the gateways through which data packets pass on way to the destination system from the source system, maximum hops and total time taken by the packet to return measured in milliseconds. IP Address or fully qualified domain name that needs to be resolved. Name lookup is used to query the Domain Name Service for information about domain names and IP addresses. It sends a domain name query packet to a configured domain name system (DNS) server. If you enter a domain name, you get back the IP address to which it corresponds. If you enter an IP address, you get back the domain name to which it corresponds. A message stating "Unknown Host" indicates that the Internet Name does not exist.

Cable Diagnostics Status Messages
Network Utility
Description
Ping
IP Address or fully qualified domain name to be pinged.
Ping determines network connection between gateway and host on the
network. The output shows if the response was received, packets
transmitted and received, and packet loss if any.
Traceroute
IP Address or fully qualified domain name
Traceroute displays all the routers present between the destination IP
address and the gateway. The output shows all the gateways through
which data packets pass on way to the destination system from the
source system, maximum hops and total time taken by the packet to
return measured in milliseconds.
Nslookup
IP Address or fully qualified domain name that needs to be resolved.
Name lookup is used to query the Domain Name Service for
information about domain names and IP addresses. It sends a domain
name query packet to a configured domain name system (DNS) server.
If you enter a domain name, you get back the IP address to which it
corresponds. If you enter an IP address, you get back the domain
name to which it corresponds. A message stating “Unknown Host”
indicates that the Internet Name does not exist.
