Using Diagnostics
The Moxa DSL Ethernet extender provides three important tools for administrators to diagnose network
systems.
Ping
The Ping function uses the ping command to give users a simple but powerful tool for troubleshooting network
problems. The function’s most unique feature is that even though the ping command is entered from the user’s
PC keyboard, the actual ping command originates from the Moxa DSL Ethernet extender itself. In this way, the
user can essentially sit on top of the Moxa DSL Ethernet extender and send ping commands out through its
ports.
To use the Ping function, type in the desired IP address, and then press Enter from the Console utility, or click
Ping when using the Web Browser interface.
