Quote is a network tool that lets you view quotations from a remote Quote server. Quote servers often display a "quote of the day".
You can use the Quote tool to identify if a host is "alive".
To use the Quote tool, do the following:
| 1. | Select the Quote tab. |
| 2. | Enter in the Server text box the host name or IP address of the remote Quote server. |
The drop-down list shows the previous host names or IP addresses you have queried.
| 3. | Click the Start button. |
The Quote client establishes a connection with the remote Quote server and displays a random quote in the Response area. If the specified host does not have a Quote server, the Quote client displays the message:
No server found there.
Tip: You can right-click the Response area to display the pop-up menu.
