IP Ping Test
The IP Ping test is used to test connectivity to a particular device or client on the
IP layer. To determine connectivity, the OC3port Plus (the source) sends an IP
message (called a "ping") over the network to a device (the destination), then waits
for the device to respond, confirming that the message was received. If the device
responds, this indicates that it is connected; if the device does not respond, you can
assume that it is not connected.
The following sections show you how to set up and run an IP Ping test.

For the OC3port Plus and the device under test to communicate, each needs to
be assigned an IP address. These addresses are entered into this table.
The table has enough space to accommodate eight addresses (1-8), one of
which is assigned to the OC3port Plus.
