13: Maintenance Diagnostics The Diagnostics web page provides methods for diagnosing problems such as network connectivity and device port input/output problems. You can use equivalent commands on the command line interface. An additional diagnostic, loopback, is only available as a command. 1.
Page 188 13: Maintenance Ping If you enter a host name in the corresponding Hostname field, the SLC console manager verifies that the host is up and running. Check the Ethernet Port button (Both, Eth1, or Eth2), and check the IPv6 box. Note: The Ethernet Port option restricts ping transmission to both Ethernet ports, Eth1, or Eth2.

Page 277: Appendix F: Protocol Glossary
Appendix F: Protocol Glossary BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) Similar to DHCP, but for smaller networks. Automatically assigns the IP address for a specific duration of time. CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) A secure protocol for connecting to a system; it is more secure than the PAP. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Internet protocol for automating the configuration of computers that use TCP/IP.
Page 278 Appendix F: Protocol Glossary configured for the modem – either a fixed number assigned to the modem, or a number associated with the user that was authenticated (the user must have Allow Dial-back enabled and a Dial-back Number defined). If the SLC console manager can determine a dial-back number to use, it will hang up and wait Dial-back Delay seconds before initiating the dial- back.
Page 279 Appendix F: Protocol Glossary For Dial-on-Demand, the PPP connection will be established when it sees IP traffic destined  for the Remote IP. When this occurs, the SLC console manager dials the Dial-out Number, and if the remote peer requests PAP or CHAP authentication, provides the Dial-out Login and Dial-out Password as authentication tokens.
Page 280 Appendix F: Protocol Glossary The SLC device will request the type of number defined by CBCP Client Type - either an  Admin-defined Number (the CBCP server determines the number to call) or a User-defined Number (the SLC console manager will provide the Fixed Dial-back Number as the number to call).
Page 281 Appendix F: Protocol Glossary RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) An authentication and accounting protocol. Enables remote access servers to communicate with a central server to authenticate dial-in users and their access permissions. A company stores user profiles in a central database that all remote servers can share. SMB/CIFS (Server Message Block/Common Internet File System): Microsoft’s protocol for allowing all applications as well as Web browsers to share files across the Internet.
