6.3. Running Cable Diagnostics
The VeriPHY page is used to perform cable diagnostics for all ports or selected ports to
diagnose any cable faults (short, open, etc.) and report the cable length.
If a specific port is selected, the test will take approximately 5 seconds. If all ports are
selected, it can run approximately 15 seconds. When completed, the page refreshes
automatically, and you can view the cable diagnostics results in the cable status table. Note
that VeriPHY is only accurate for cables 7 - 140 meters long.
Ports will be linked down while running VeriPHY. Therefore, running VeriPHY on a
management port will cause the switch to stop responding until testing is completed.
