• Diagnosis LAN health automatically with one click
• Identify root cause with guided troubleshooting
• Observe connectivity processes
• Monitor local traffic, switch interfaces and protocols
• Discover and map devices, networks and VLANs
• Measure and assess Ethernet LAN/WAN link performance and SLA compliance
• Validate the availability and responsiveness of LAN services
• Secure the network from internal threats

streams, easy operation, easy-to-read results
and a 4X minimum improvement in testing
speed. More relevant than RFC 2544 testing
for Metro Ethernet circuit turn-up and SLA
validation, both Carriers and private network
operators find ProVision valuable.

Verifies delivery of services and
applications
The Service Performance Tool verifies that
essential network services and applications
are available and responsive. Visual pass/fail
indicators facilitate quick and easy results
analysis at a glance. Incorporate service
delivery reports into your LAN validation
practice as proof of acceptable network
operation.

Ready for demanding field use
Easy to use and carry, the EtherScope is
compact and rugged for harsh environments.
Featuring a bright, color touch screen, an
intuitive user interface and on-board help,
the EtherScope is ready to assist you when it
is time for action.
