ROX™ is able to perform cable diagnostics per Ethernet port and to view the results.
When cable diagnostics are performed on a port, any established network link on the port
will be dropped and normal network traffic will not be able to pass through either the Port
Under Test or the Partner Port. Please be aware of the potential network interruption that
could be triggered by running cable diagnostics. After the cable diagnostics finish, the
original network port settings for both the Port Under Test and the Partner Port are restored
along with any established link.
