3.6. RipEX Practical Tests

Since the best way to understand the product is through practice, we have described a few practical
tests you may wish to conduct.
3.6.1. RipEX-to-RipEX Ping
Ping is the basic tool for checking connectivity between two hosts with IP addresses. Because RipEX
is a native IP device, ping can also be used for radio link testing.
Go to the Ping tab in the Diagnostic menu. You can either set the Ping Type to „ICMP" (common ping)
or to „RSS". The RSS type is a RipEX proprietary ping with extended reports.
The destination is the remote RipEX's IP address. For example when you are locally connected to
RipEX A (192.168.1.101), fill in 192.168.1.102.
When Ping is started, you will see the following on-line report on your screen.
