VINES Ping
When you issue a VINES ping to a remote VINES device, the router responds if
the device can be reached. Site Manager displays the response.
To send a VINES request to determine the network connectivity of a VINES host:
1. In the Site Manager main window, choose Administration >
Ping from Router > VINES.
The VINES Ping window opens (Figure 11-7)

2.
In the Net.Host field, type the network and host address of the remote
device you want to ping.
The Network ID is the 32-bit serial number of the server node that identifies
the logical grouping of nodes on a VINES network. The Host address is the
16-bit subnetwork number that identifies the node within the server node’s
logical grouping.
Note:
You can enter the network and host addresses in decimal or hexadecimal
format. If you use hexadecimal format, precede each address with the 0x
prefix.
