Monitor
The MONITOR mode lets you continuously monitor impulse noise on twisted pair
network cabling. With the 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.
