Network Connectivity Testing 
Each of the four physical GbE input ports will respond to PING.  Since the GbE 
input ports are not configurable for default gateway, a static route to the source 
network of the PING must be added to the GbE port to facilitate PING responses 
over layer 3 networks.  Static routes can be added via the GUI, using the 
System/ARP & Routes page.
