Port Monitor

The Port Monitor option is a diagnostic tool that can be used to review the actual data being transmitted to, or received by the Local (LAN) unit. This can be especially useful in determining where a transmission failure is occurring.

When monitoring is started, a hex display of each transmission, may be viewed as it occurs. The number of packets that are displayed is determined by the value given at the Number of bytes to display for each packet prompt. When attempting to determine a transmission problem, it may be useful to print the hex displays for further analysis.

NOTE: The Port Monitor should only be used for installation verification and

PPPnegotiation verification. Under normal operation the Port Monitor should not be used as it will decrease performance.
