Device ping
Use the Ping tool to ping an individual system or multiple systems. To ping systems, select Diagnose→Ping.
The Ping window appears. Select the target systems and click Run Now to run the task. For more information,
see “Creating a task”.
If a system does not resolve to an IP address, the request cannot be performed. For systems with multiple IP
addresses, the result of each IP address occupies one row in the result page. The status on the upper-right
corner is: Pinging selected systems. After all the systems on the list are pinged, the status is: Ping
completed with a time stamp of the completion time.
The ping results appear in a separate window. You might receive the following replies:
• Replied. The request has been executed successfully, and the pinged system has responded.
• Request timed out. The request has been executed, but the pinged system failed to respond.
• System has no IP address. There is no IP address associated with the system. Unable to perform
ping.
• No system is selected. No system is selected.
