Psiber Data Systems NETWORK IP TESTER - Manual (Page 8)

POWER
Duration - The Pinger will typically provide 10-12 hours of operation from
a set of four AA alkaline batteries. An AC adapter is also provided which
will power the unit but does not recharge the batteries.
Auto Power Down
- The Pinger will automatically turn off after the time
selected in the Power Down Setup screen or will run continuously until
manually turned off when “ON” is selected for Power Down.
Low Battery - When the batteries are below the level required for the
Pinger to operate properly, a “LO BATT” message appears in the upper
right hand corner of the display.
APPLICATIONS
Installation - Verify physical layer connectivity between any two
points on a network by sending an actual data packet to the other IP
address and receiving the packet back. Use two units to PING each
other to test network end-to-end operation prior to installing work
stations, servers or other network devices.
Trouble Calls - Reduce troubleshooting time by ensuring the Link is
active, wire polarity is correct and data is not being corrupted.
Moves, Adds and Changes - Port ID feature transmits Link activation
signals to identify the hub/switch port that is connected to a wall outlet.
Four different blink rates and a continuous mode provide compatibility
with a wide range of network equipment.
Network Management - Measure Round Trip Time between different
points on the network to determine if high traffic levels are causing poor
network performance. Typically Round Trip Times should be less than
one second. Identify the MAC address of a network device.
Remote Office Support - Users in remote locations can connect the
Pinger at a problem point on a network and the the support desk can
PING the unit over the Internet. This test shows if there is correct
network operation to the point where the Pinger has been installed.
Support Desk - Resolve Internet log-on problems by verifying the
DHCP server is available and the assigned IP address is valid.
