Connection test
Ping test
To test the connection state of the external server, execute Ping Test on the Network
Settings screen. This function is used to inspect whether the specified server exists in the
LAN. This connection test is performed on the server that is shown in the “IP Address”
column of External Server. However, it is necessary as a premise that the IP Address has
been saved by pressing SAVE . When a response is received from the server, a message
“OK Complete!” is displayed.
Ping may not always be responded to for reasons of security functions such as packet filter,
firewall or security gateway. Ping test may be reexecuted after disabling the security
function of the server. In that case, restart the DS-L1 first. Also, even when Ping was not
responded to, there is no problem with the server connection only if the server can be
logged-in in the login test described below.
Login test
To test logging in to the server, execute Login Test on the Network Settings screen. A
login test is performed on the server that is shown in the IP Address column of External
Server by using its set User ID and Password. However, it is necessary as a premise that
the User ID and Password have been saved by pressing SAVE . If the server cannot be
logged in, check settings on the PC side and those of the DS-L1.
