<div class="section"> <div class="p">Ping sends out a special IP packet to a specified

host. If the destination host receives this special packet, it replies to
|
||
|
|
you with a message which indicates to you that you can communicate with that
|
||
|
|
host. You can use the Ping utility in two different ways: <ul><li>Use it to test your local TCP/IP configuration. For example, after setting
|
||
|
|
up TCP/IP on the server for the first time you can use Ping to test the TCP/IP
|
||
|
|
configuration.</li>
|
||
|

<li>Use Ping to test your ability to communicate with other hosts on the local

or remote networks.</li>
