DESCRIPTION
Select either Ping or Traceroute from the Select Utility menu
to choose a test. The screen changes accordingly.
Type the IP address or domain name (such as www.example.com) of a
device that you want to traceroute in order to test a connection.
Specify the maximum number of hops the traceroute takes before the
process ends. A hop is connection from one router or intermediate
device to another on a network. The more hops there are, the longer it
takes for data to reach its destination.
Specify the number of data packet bytes the ZyXEL Device sends on the
traceroute. The default is 40 bytes (32 bytes of data plus 8 bytes for the
header). If you need to determine the Maximum Transmission Unit
(MTU) size TCP/IP connection, change this setting. Otherwise leave it as
the default.
This field is not enabled as of this writing.
Select On to resolved all IP addresses returned by the traceroute to
their domain names.
Click Start Test to begin the ping test.
Click Abort Test to stop the ping test.
Click Clear Results to clear the Results text box.
This read-only text box displays the ping test results.
