Network Tools

Three test tools are available from this page.

NSLookup - converts a domain name to its IP address and vice versa.

Ping - tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by sending an ICMP
echo request and waiting for a reply.

TraceRoute - displays the path to a destination by showing the number of hops and the
router addresses of these hops.
