Pinging a Remote System
You can instruct the switch to ping a node on your network. This
procedure is useful in determining whether a valid link exists between
the switch and another device.
Note
The switch must have an IP address in order for you to perform this
procedure. This means that in most cases you must perform this
procedure from the master switch of an enhanced switch.
To instruct the switch to ping a network device, perform the following
procedure:
1. From the Home Page, select Monitoring.
2. From the Monitoring menu, select the System menu option.
3. Select the Ping Client tab.
The Ping Client Menu is shown in Figure 75.

4. Enter the IP address of the end node you want the switch to ping.
5. Click OK.
The results of the ping are displayed in a new window.
6. To stop the pinging, click OK.
