Verifying Network Service

The optional DTX-NSM Network Service Module lets you
verify that a twisted pair or fiber link is connected to a
network. The network tests include a ping function and a
network traffic monitor.
Running network tests on a fiber link requires an
optional SFP (small form pluggable) module.
The DTX-NSM module does not support the Talk
function.
Figure 21 describes the network module's features.
The network service tests will not run on links with
ground loops, analog telephone voltages, ISDN
voltages, or other voltages (except PoE voltage).
The tester warns you if it detects these conditions.
