      Figure 2 Network status

      The latency is described as follows:

      • 1 to 30 ms, indicating that the network speed is extremely high and there is almost no delay.
      • 30 to 50 ms, indicating that the network speed is good and there is no obvious delay.
      • 50 to 100 ms, indicating that the network speed is normal and there is a slight delay.
      • 100 to 200 ms, indicating that the network speed is low and disconnection occurs occasionally.
      • If the value is greater than 200 ms, the network speed is extremely low, and the network is frequently disconnected or cannot be accessed.
    1. In any blank area on the desktop, enter the CLI mode.
    2. Run the following command to check the network status:

      ping + Address for the desktop to access the Internet

  3. Determine the network segment where the network connection is abnormal based on the results in 2.c and 2.e, record the exception, and contact the administrator.

    • If the network latency in 2.c and 2.e is too high, the public network is abnormal.
    • If the network latency in 2.c is too high but the network latency in 2.e is low, the internal network of the desktop is abnormal.
