How to ping your F&S Board
A ping command can be a useful way to check the basics of network connectivity, measure latency times, and diagnose basic issues with the SBC/SoM network connection.
The ping from the SBC/SoM to a PC works smoothly, but not the other way around.
Therefore, the following settings need to be configured on the SBC/SoM to enable it to be pinged and reachable on the network:
- Start “Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security” on your SBC/SoM
- Select and enable “File and Printer Sharing (Echo Request – ICMPv4-In)- private&Domain” under Inbound Rules
Now, it should be possible to successfully ping your F&S Board from the PC!
