The results of the ping are displayed in the tab. The Min., Max., and
Avg., values are the minimum, maximum, and average response times
in milliseconds by the end node to the pings. The traffic light also
indicates the results of the ping. Green means it was successful,
yellow that it timed out, and red that the system could not launch the
ping program.

You can use this tab to run a throughput test.
The ping test, explained in the previous subsection, allows you to
determine whether an operational network path exists between a network
adapter and another node on the network. A throughput test allows you to
go a step further by measuring the speed at which traffic can be passed
over the path and so gauge the available bandwidth.
The utility performs the test by creating a file of 1 to 11 megabytes on the
local hard disk, sending it to a specified network drive, and then copying it
back again to the local hard disk. The file is transferred a total of three
times for each test. The speed at which the file is both sent and received
