Ping Tab - Symbol VRC 89XX Product Reference Manual

• Subnet Mask: Most TCP/IP networks use subnets to manage routed IP
addresses. This allows the network to connect to the Internet with a single shared
network address, e.g., 255.255.255.0.
• Default Gateway: Used to forward IP packets to and from a remote destination.
See your network administrator for the IP address required for the default gateway.
• DNS (Domain Name System): The IP address of a server containing a database of
host names and their associated IP addresses so that when a host name is used,
it can be resolved into its IP address.
• WINS (Windows Internet Name Service): A NetBIOS Name Server that registers
your NetBIOS names and resolves into IP addresses, similar to DNS.
• MAC Address: An IEEE 48-bit address the adapter is given at the factory which
uniquely identifies the adapter at the physical layer level.
• Host Name: User-assigned host name.
