Note:
You can use ping/traceroute to test both numeric IP address or domain name. If pinging/tracerouting
the IP address is successful, but pinging/tracerouting the domain name is not, you might have a
name resolution problem. In this case, ensure that the domain name you are specifying can be
resolved by using Domain Name System (DNS) queries.
IP Address/ Domain Name - Enter the IP Address or Domain Name of the PC whose
connection you wish to diagnose.
Ping Count - Specifies the number of Echo Request messages sent. The default is 4.
Ping Packet Size - Specifies the number of data bytes to be sent. The default is 64.
Ping Timeout - Time to wait for a response, in milliseconds. The default is 800.
Traceroute Max TTL - Set the maximum number of hops (max TTL to be reached) in the path
to search for the target (destination). The default is 20.
Click the Start button to start the diagnostic procedure.
The Diagnostic Results page displays the result of diagnosis.

Max TTL" is Traceroute Parameter.

Selecting System Tools > Ping Watch Dog allows you to continuously monitor the particular
connection between the device and a remote host. It makes this device continuously ping a user
defined IP address (it can be the Internet gateway for example.). If it is unable to ping under the
user defined constraints, this device will automatically reboot.
