Connection to remote machines

HULFT uses the TCP/IP protocol to transfer files. The destination of a transfer is the remote machine, which is identified by its host name. Perform a connection test (using the ping command) to verify if the remote machine has established a connection under its host name.

To perform a communication test of HULFT, as described later in this manual, make sure that the connection test under the local host name is successful.

<Example> Remote host name: uxhost1

# ping uxhost1                                   
PING uxhost1: 64 byte packets
64 bytes from 123.45.67.89: icmp_seq=0. time=0. ms
64 bytes from 123.45.67.89: icmp_seq=1. time=0. ms
64 bytes from 123.45.67.89: icmp_seq=2. time=0. ms
