Running a LANBERT Test
Before You Begin
l
Identify the cable or channel path that you
want to test. (Note that LANBERTuses
Ethernet frames to test LANpathways,
including copper or fiber cables. It cannot
function on wide-area networks or devices
that use IPaddresses to route traffic.)
l
Plug one end of the LANcable into the
Product Wired Test Port.
l
Set up a loopback device at the other end of
the LANpathway to relay the received
Ethernet frames back to the LANBERT
generator. This device can be:
o
A physical loopback device for either
copper or fiber media.
o
An Ethernet switch with a loopback
feature. (Consult the manufacturer's doc-
umentation for instructions on setting up
the loop.)
