Perform Diagnostics

You can perform two diagnostics tests:

• Ping an IP address or Host Name. Use this test to send a ping packet request to the

specified IP address or host name.

This test is often used to test a connection. If the request times out (in other words, no

reply is received), this result usually means that the destination is unreachable. Note,

however, that some network devices can be configured not to respond to a ping.

• Perform a DNS Lookup. A DNS (Domain Name Server) converts the Internet name (for

example, www.netgear.com) to an IP address.

If you need the IP address of a web, FTP, mail, or other server on the Internet, do a DNS

lookup to find the IP address.

For normal operation, these tests are not required.
