Pinging
Before you get your network up and running, you will likely want to check
connectivity. This is most easily done by sending a ping from one workstation
to another. However, you must configure firewall access policies to allow
ICMP echo messages before you can use ping messages.
To check the module’s connectivity, you must complete the following tasks:
■ Configure firewall access policies to allow ICMP echo messages
■ Send a ping from the TMS zl Module to an endpoint
