Ping a Computer

Pinging a computer on the network makes sure it is able to be “seen” and receive messages on the network.

NOTE: You can also ping your RVON-8 card to verify that it is responding over the network by putting the cards IP Address

in place of the computer IP Address.

To Ping a computer on the network, do the following:

1. From the Start Menu, open a Command Prompt screen.

2. At the prompt, type the IP Address of the computer you wish to ping (for example, 10.2.100.130).

3. Press Enter.

NOTE: If the computer you are pinging is not responding to the ping, you will receive a time-out message in the command

prompt screen.

POSSIBLE PITFALL WITH ROUTERS, GATEWAYS, AND SWITCHES

Anytime computers communicate through routers, gateways, and switches, they may be allowed or denied the connection.

Network interface devices can be configured to block specific outgoing requests, as well as incoming requests, based on the IP

Address and/or port. This is one of the security mechanisms of a router. This also happens when broadcast messages are sent

and received.

To view the path an IP Address takes to retrieve information, you can execute a tracert from the Command Prompt Screen.

1. From the Start Menu, open a Command Prompt screen.
