However, all ping testing to and from cisco routers, or other network equipment is generally not considered accurate, because network equipment is designed to send traffic through it, not to it. Cisco routers are going to delay ping traffic that go to its interface as the Cisco router or switch, uses only the main cpu to ship the traffic.

	Ping testing is a fundamental basis of troubleshooting ip network testing. Pings are the lowest form of traffic, and generally are the most likely to be disregarded by equipment, or responded to last in the event that there is processor utilization or other traffic utilization. Therefore if pings go through, it is highly likely that all other traffic is going through, likey better than pings. Pings allow detection of lost packets and can help determine if there are errors or help in [[Debugging Ethernet Port Duplex and Speed Settings]]. Sending a series of pings simulates traffic flow over a network interface, and as traffic goes over an interface potential errors can be detected.

Ping testing is a fundamental basis of troubleshooting ip network testing. Sending a series of pings simulates traffic flow over a network interface, and as traffic goes over an interface potential errors can be detected. Pings allow detection of lost packets and can help determine if there are errors or Speed and Duplex
