verifies that VersaLink can exchange IP traffic with an entity on the other side of the DSL line.
Possible Responses:
Success: VersaLink has detected an IP Remote Router connection.
No Response: The IP Remote Router does not answer the IP Ping.
Could not test: The test could not be executed due to Router settings. Check your DSL link or
your PPP session. You must have both a DSL link and a PPP connection established to execute a
PING.

echo packets with varying IP Time-To-Live (TTL) values to the destination. Trace Route is used
to determine where the packet is stopped on the network.
