SonicOS 5.8.1 Administrator Guide
Check Network Settings
Check Network Settings is a diagnostic tool which automatically checks the network
connectivity and service availability of several pre-defined functional areas of SonicOS, returns
the results, and attempts to describe the causes if any exceptions are detected. This tool helps
administrators locate the problem area when users encounter a network problem.
Specifically, the Check Network Settings tool automatically tests the following functions:
• Default Gateway settings
• DNS settings
• MySonicWALL server connectivity
• License Manager server connectivity
• Content Filter server connectivity
The return data consists of two parts:
• Test Results – Provides a summary of the test outcome
• Notes – Provides details to help determine the cause if any problems exist
