Getting Started Guide
Connecting the OptiView XG to a Network
You can connect the OptiView XG to a network via network ports A, B, C, or D, or via the built-in
wireless adapters.
The OptiView XG’s management port can be used for remote control of the analyzer (from a
separate network). This lets you control the analyzer from a management network while using
the OptiView XG to test a production network.
Establishing a Wired or Fiber Connection
Connect an appropriate cable from one of the OptiView XG’s network ports to the network that
you want to test. The OptiView XG will find the active network interface and obtain an IP address.
Then it will begin discovering the network.
Network Ports

• Port A: RJ45 Ethernet connector, 10/100/1000 Mbps
