Ping

Navigate to Diagnostic Tools > Ping to use the ping command to check if your LANCOM R&S®Unified Firewall can communicate with a computer or other device at a specific network address.

Ping is a diagnostic tool that continuously sends ping signals to the target to check if it is able to receive data. Pinging can help you debug communication problems by verifying connectivity between your LANCOM R&S®Unified Firewall and the remote device.

The Pingconfiguration dialog allows you to configure the following elements:

Input field Description
Destination Enter a valid network address to ping.
Request Count Select the number of ICMP echo request packets to be sent to the target. You can choose any integer from 1 to 10 from the drop-down list. The default number is set to 4.

Click Run to start pinging. The Output area displays the output of the ping command. If the other device responds to the ping, your LANCOM R&S®Unified Firewall can reach the device.

The Close button at the bottom of the panel allows you to shut the panel and return to the complete overview of your entire configured network.
