this is helpful to determine if the internet firewall is properly configured. for example, if the internet firewall thinks that a machine known to be on the internet is located on the lan port, then there is a problem with the configuration of the network or intranet settings. find network path also shows if the target node is behind a router, and the ethernet address of the target node or router. find network path also shows which router a node is using, which can help isolate router configuration problems.

type the ip address of the device and click go. the test takes a few seconds to complete.
