Checking the connection with “ping”
Once you are finished with the network settings, make a check with “ping” to confirm
that you can send and receive data normally. Here, “ping” is a network diagnostic tool
incorporated into the OS as a standard feature. A simple description of how to use “ping”
incorporated into Windows 98 is described below so refer to it when needed. If using
“ping” while incorporated into another OS or TCP/IP protocol, then consult the instruc-
tion manual for that particular device.
1)
Click the “Start” button, point to “Pro-
grams,” and then select “MS-DOS
Prompt” to open the MS-DOS window.
2)
Run the ping command.
You will see a cursor at C:¥WINDOWS>
on the screen. Enter,
ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
and press the Enter key.
In the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx portion, enter the
controller IP address.
The address for the controller in the fig-
ure on the right (middle) is 192.168.0.2.
This example shows normal communica-
tion status.
3)
The right (bottom) figure shows normal
communication has not been established.
If this happens, recheck the network de-
vice and settings, and eliminate the trou-
ble.
