Network Utilities

Use wireless controller utilities to test a connection to the target IP address (or Fully Qualified Domain Name) and record the route through the Internet between your computer and the target address. You can also use controller utilities to capture exception traffic, which can be useful for network administrators when debugging network problems.

Configure the following parameters:

Table 1. Network Utilities
Field	Description
Target IP address or Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)	IP address or FQDN for the test target.
Use specific route interface	Indicates if a specific interface will be selected for the test. Select the interface from the Select Interface field. When this option is cleared, ExtremeCloud IQ Controller runs the test based on the interface selected in the routing table.
Select interface	Used with specific source interface option. See list of possible interfaces on the Interface tab.
Ping	Initiate the Ping network utility to determine reachability of the IP address or FQDN that you specify.
Trace Route	Initiate the Trace route command, which traces the path of a packet from ExtremeCloud IQ Controller to the IP address or FQDN that you specify. It lists the routers it passes until it reaches its destination, or fails to. It also indicates the length of each hop.
