Ping Menu Options

The Ping menu bar displays five menus: Exit, Settings, Start, Stop and Help. The Exit menu terminates the Ping utility, and the Help menu displays any help information available about the Ping. The other three are described below.

The Settings Menu

The Settings menu allows you to set up parameters of the Ping session. When you select this menu, a dialog box will appear:

You can cancel any changes you make to the dialog box by clicking on Cancel. By clicking on OK, any new settings you make become the defaults for future Ping sessions.

The following input fields and check boxes are available:

Host IP

This field is used to specify a network node name or address of the remote host, which you wish to verify a physical connection to. When you click on the scroll arrow beside the Host IP box, a drop-down box will display host definitions located in your hosts file. To select a host, click on an appropriate definition.

Interval

This field lets you set a time interval between two neighboring data packets, in seconds.

Trace

This check box allows to toggle packet tracing. The default setting is disabled.

The Start Menu

The Start menu initiates a Ping session with the host specified in the Settings dialog box. Your PC sends a sequence of data packets to the host with the time interval specified in the Settings dialog box. When the connection between your PC and the host exists, the PC will receive a response after every packet sent. If the Ping finds the host or IP address, it will return the message (or IP address) is alive. If you get this message, then you know that the TCP/IP transport is set up correctly.

If there are any hardware problems, please check that your cable connection is good, and check to see if the host can ping back to your PC.

The Stop Menu

The Stop menu terminates the Ping session with the remote host specified in the Settings dialog box.
