You can use a ping or a traceroute, and you can perform a memory dump.
The following sections describe how you can troubleshoot the switch and the network:
•

• Send an IPv4 Traceroute

Ping an IPv4 Address
You can configure the switch to send a ping request to a specified IP address. You can use
this option to check whether the switch can communicate with a particular IP station. When
you send a ping, the switch sends a specified number of ping requests and the results are
displayed.
If a reply to the ping is not received, the following message displays:
PING x.y.z.w (x.y.z.w): size data bytes
--- x.y.z.w ping statistics ---
count packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
If a reply to the ping is received, the following message displays:
PING x.y.z.w (x.y.z.w): size data bytes
size bytes from x.y.z.w: seq=0 ttl=xyz
--- x.y.z.w ping statistics ---
count packets transmitted, count packets received, x% packet loss

To configure the settings and ping an IPv4 host on the network:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
