Assume that you ping your gateway. If the gateway does not respond, but another host does, what sort of problem could this indicate?

What will be an ideal response?


Answers will vary, but any of the following are correct. This could indicate a problem with
the router's interface serving as the gateway. One possibility is that we have the wrong
address for the gateway. Another possibility is that the router interface might be fully opera
tional but might have security applied to it that is preventing it from processing or responding
to ping requests. It is also possible that other hosts may have the same security restriction
applied.
