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.
