TESTING AND TROUBLESHOOTING

This chapter lists procedures to test the FOT-F3 Fiber Optic Transceiver after it has been connected to the network. A description of LANVIEW and its function in troubleshooting physical layer network problems are also given.

4.1 INSTALLATION CHECK-OUT

This section contains procedures to test:

The fiber optic link segment to be attached to the FOT-F3.

The FOT-F3 after it has been installed to ensure that the physical layer of the network is operating properly. Two Ethernet node testers capable of generating valid data packets,such as the LAN-MD, are required for this procedure.
