5.17 Testing TCP/IP Configuration:
Before you can test the TCP/IP configuration you need to make the connection of
the Ethernet Port(s) to the target network.
Once TCP/IP setup is complete and the Ethernet cables are connected to an
operational network, perform the following test to determine if your MultiNet
Receiver is working properly in the network. To test your settings, ping another
computer or device that is on your network. At a command prompt, issue the
following command replacing {network ID of another computer} with the IP
address of the gateway or other known PC on the network.
ping –c4{network ID of another computer}<Enter>
Example: ping –c4 192.168.0.1<Enter> (Default Gateway PC)
or ping –c4 192.168.0.11<Enter> (Default 7170 setting)
The above listed ping commands will ping 4 times (-c4), either the default
Gateway, or the 7170 assuming they are configured as listed.
You can even ping the IP address of the receiver itself to see how the ping
program works. Ping –c4 192.168.0.101<Enter> (Default Receiver)
If necessary you may press:
<Ctrl> + C to stop pinging attempts.
You should receive responses indicating how long the response took, if it failed or
timed out.
The example screen below shows the “ping –help” response, a successful ping
and a failed ping.
