Example: Verifying Communication Using the ping Command
For example, to send a ping command from your PC to an instrument
click open a
Command Prompt window. When the Command Prompt
window opens, type
ping <IP_address>, where <IP_address> is the IP
address of the instrument, and then press the
Enter key. A typical
display follows, where
ping was successful.
A typical display follows, where
ping was not successful:
NOTE
If you cannot verify communication to connected instruments using the
ping command, try using
ping to a device at a known address. If this is
successful, the problem is likely with the instrument (for site LANs) or
with the hub/switch or instruments (for private LANs).
