Ethernet
The SmartClass IW-1000 includes a suite of Ethernet connectivity tests.
Port Discovery
The Port discovery test displays the established link rate on the Ethernet
connection between the IW-1000 and a router. It also displays the available rates
and the signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) of each active twisted pair. This information
helps technicians pinpoint connection issues between the customer premises
equipment (CPE) devices and the premises router.
Ping
Ping tests let technicians verify network connectivity to a particular IP or URL
address. They can also verify that a particular location is capable of reaching either
the Internet or a specific server on the network, which lets technicians avoid using
customer equipment or a laptop to perform simple connectivity tests.
Hub Flash
The Hub Flash test is an additional Ethernet test available on the IW-1000
intended for locations with multiple Ethernet connections running to a central
device. The Hub Flash will cause the port light to flash on the hub/switch/router
indicating that the SmartClass is connected. This simple identification method
lets technicians quickly determine which port is connected to a particular run.
