Monitor
The MONITOR mode lets you continuously monitor impulse noise on twisted pair
network cables. With the optional DSP-LIA013 link interface adapter, you can
monitor network activity on Ethernet systems. Network activity is monitored for
collisions, jabber, and percentage of system utilization. The traffic adapter also
includes a hub port locator, which helps you determine port connections at a hub,
and a hub port capabilities feature that determines the standards supported by a
port.
