Re: Qs about some x.cfg fieldssaid by symptco_user:diag {
host="www.yahoo.com"
}Funny. Didn't they trust their own "www.sympatico.ca" to resolve and be up? ;) That's kind of silly since all the Firmwares (World-Wide) that I've looked at use Yahoo.com.
A0X = "Full Router GA configuration"
A21 = "TelMex Full Router 2"
A29 = "France Telecom Simple Router"
A2K = "FrontierNet PPPoA Full Router"
A2W = "Telemar Full Router"
A3J = "France Telecom PPPoA Full Router"
A4C = "Alltel Router Configuration"
A50 = "Alltel Router Configuration v2"
and more..
Regards,
Doctor Olds

""Ping a well-known Internet host""
I think it qualifies for being "well known"
If DNS fails, that last test will also fail.
