y Utilities for network debugging
The console interface provides several utilities to assist the Administrator to check the system conditions

¾ Ping host (IP): By sending ICMP echo request to a specified host and wait for the response to test
the network status.
¾ Trace routing path: Trace and inquire the routing path to a specific target.
¾ Display interface settings: It displays the information of each network interface setting including the
MAC address, IP address, and netmask.
¾ Display the routing table: The internal routing table of the system is displayed, which may help to
confirm the Static Route settings.

¾ Display system up time: The system live time (time for system being turn on) is displayed.
¾ Check service status: Check and display the status of the system.

browser for the system failed inexplicitly. The administrator can choose this utility and set it into safe
mode, which enables him to manage this device with browser again.
¾ Synchronize clock with NTP server: Immediately synchronize the clock through the NTP protocol
and the specified network time server. Since this interface does not support manual setup for its
internal clock, therefore we must reset the internal clock through the NTP.

users to print out their boot-up messages instead of copying the messages by hand.
