Ping Screen
Tap Ping to send a packet to a particular IP address to determine if it is online. From this
screen you can send a PING request to another network device whose network address
you already know. This is useful to verify network connectivity.
As with other PING applications, enter the IP address of the other network device in the IP
field, then select the desired payload size. Tapping Send sends the PING. A status line
displays a "Success" or "Fail" message to indicate whether or not the PING was successful.
There is a 20 second timeout for a response before a "Success" or "Fail" message may
display.
There are some limitations on this PING implementation:
• The size of PING payload is limited to 99 bytes. If a payload of greater than that is
entered, a data error message will be displayed.
• The delay to wait for response is fixed at 20 seconds.
