Test
The Test menus are used to test connectivity of the Router. A Ping test may be done through the
local or external interface to test connectivity to known IP addresses. The diagnostics feature
executes a series of test of your system software and hardware connections. Use this Test menu
when working with your ISP to troubleshoot problems.
Ping and Diagnostics Test Menu
Ping Test
Type the IP address you want to Ping and click on the
Ping
button. The results will appear below.
Diagnostic Test
Select the Virtual Circuit and click the Submit button. A message will appear informing you if the
loop test succeeded or failed.
The diagnostics utility will run a series of test to check whether the device's connections are up and
working. This takes only a few seconds. The program reports whether the test passed or failed. A
test may be skipped if the program determines that no suitable interface is configured on which to
run the test.
