Under the NetTool icon, you can also obtain status information for the cables connected to NetTool. For example:

ahn235f.eps

The tester detects whether the cables are straight or swapped. If it sees a swap cable problem, it swaps the cables internally, allowing you to troubleshoot past a simple swap cable problem.

The LEDs on either side of NetTool indicate the status and utilization of the link and whether NetTool discovers any errors.
