Verifying the communication

Connect your PC to the nearby switch and ping the connected IED and the
Substation Master PC, to verify that the communication is working (up to the
transport layer). If it is possible to see all of them, then they can see each other.
The best way to verify the communication up to the application layer is to
• use a protocol analyzer, for example an Ethereal that is connected to the
substation bus, and
• monitor the communication
