LANVIEW LEDS
The FDDI network adapters incorporate Cabletron Systems’ built-

visual diagnostic and status monitoring LEDs. The
LANVIEW LEDs (shown in Figure 2-4) are more effective than a
network monitor, because network troubleshooting personnel can
quickly scan the LEDs to diagnose network problems and
determine which network segment is faulty.
