Item Description
Ping or Trace an IP
address
Ping – Used to send a ping packet request to a specified IP address—most often,
to test a connection. If the request times out (no reply is received), it usually means
that the destination is unreachable. However, some network devices can be
configured not to respond to a ping. The ping results will be displayed in a new
screen; click “Back” on the Windows menu bar to return to the Diagnostics screen.
Traceroute (often called Trace Route) – Lists all Routers between the source (this
device) and the destination IP address. The Trace Route results will be displayed
in a new screen; click “Back” on the Windows menu bar to return to the Diagnostics
screen.
Perform a DNS Lookup A DNS (Domain Name Server) converts the Internet name (e.g. www.netgear.com)
to an IP address. If you need the IP address of a Web, FTP, Mail or other Server on
the Internet, you can do a DNS lookup to find the IP address.
Display the Routing
Table
This operation will display the internal routing table. This information is used, most
often, by Technical Support.
