LIMITED WARRANTY & LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Fluke Corporation (Fluke) warrants its products to be free from
defects in material and workmanship under normal use and
service for one (1) year, beginning on the date of shipment. This
warranty extends only to the original buyer or end-user custom er
of a Fluke authorized reseller, and does not apply to fuses, bat-

teries or to any product which, in Fluke’s opinion, has been mis­used, altered, neglected or damaged by accident or abnormal
conditions of operation or handling. Fluke warrants that software
will operate on appropriate Fluke instruments substantially in
accordance with its functional specific ati ons f o r 90 days and that
it has been properly recorded on non-defective media. Fluke
does not warrant that software will be error free or operate with­out interruption.

Fluke authorized resellers shall extend this warranty on new and
unused products to end-user customers only but have no
authority to extend a greater or different warranty on behalf of
Fluke.

Fluke’s warranty obligation is limited, at Fluke’s option, to refund
of the purchase price, or free of charge repair or replacement of
a defective product which is returned to an authorized Fluke
Service Center within the warranty period.

To obtain warranty service, call Fluke for instructions at the
number listed in the Appendix. Following warranty repair, the
product will be returned to Buyer, transportation prepaid (FOB
Destination). If Fluke determines that the failure was caused by
misuse, alteration, accident or abnormal condi ti on of operation or
handling, Fluke will provide an estimate of repair costs and ob­tain authorization before commencing the work. Following re­pair, the product will be returned to the Buyer transportation
prepaid and the Buyer will be billed for the repair and return
transportation charges (FOB Shipping Point).

Warranty service is available outside the United States only if
product was purchased through a Fluke Authorized Sales Outlet
in the country of use or the applicable Fluke international price
was paid. Product transported from the United States for which
the applicable Fluke international price was not paid must be
returned to the U.S. to receive warranty service, at the shipment
expense and risk of Buyer. Fluke reserves the right to invoice
Buyer for importation costs of repair/replacem ent parts when
product purchased in one country is submitted for repair in an­other country.

THIS WARRANTY IS PURCHASER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE
REMEDY AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,

Since some countries or states do not allow limitation of the term
of an implied warranty, or exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, the limitations and excl usi ons of t his
warranty may not apply to every buyer. If any provision of this
Warranty is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of compe­tent jurisdiction, such holding will not affect the validity or en­forceability of any other provision of this warranty.

Introduction

Introducing the OneTouch Series II Network Assistant

Introduction

AutoTest and Central Setup are two critical elements of
using your Network Assistant. To run AutoTest, press
(AutoTest) on the top-level display. The Network
Assistant will take one of several courses of action.

q

If a link pulse is detected, it searches for devices on
the network. The devices on your segment are
shown by protocol on the AutoTest display. The map
view shows a summary of device types, including the
Network Assistant itself and the hub , which
shows hub capability (Figure 2-1).

q

If it detects a wire mapper (office locator), it will map
the cable.

q

If it detects the Fiber Optic Module (FOM), it will
report the results.

Chapter 2

Autotest and Central Setup

q

If it detects an open cable, it will perform Time
Domain Reflectometry (TDR) on the cable to
determine cable length, characteristic impedance,
and other parameters.

q

If no link pulse is detected but it detects termination,
no data will be found and you will see the message,

No cable tests when plugged into an active
device.

or NIC that is not turned on.

If link is detected, you can get the same information via
AutoTest or Network Health from the main menu. You
can then use the tabs to navigate between the different
views. The difference between AutoTest and Network
Health is that AutoTest restarts the discovery process
from the beginning, including DHCP addresses (if
enabled). Network Health allows you to view the
information without a discovery restart. Pressing AutoTest
is the same as unplugging the network cable and then

This could happen if it is plugged into a hub

plugging it back in. This is also the same as pressing
the

(Rerun) button.

Press a displayed device, cable, or hub icon to see a
popup screen showing more information about that item.
Close the resulting popup screen by pressing

.

ace201s.bmp

Figure 2-1. AutoTest Display

AutoTest continues to discover devices and to count
frames and errors even after you exit the screen by
pressing

(up one level). The Network Health test runs

in the background (read Chapter 3).

Device Discovery Process

When you attach the Network Assistant to a network, it
immediately begins searching for servers, routers,
printers, and switches. This search occurs whenever the
Network Assistant gains link pulse regardless of the
current menu.

During the discovery process (5-20 seconds, depending
on network), the Network Assistant processes only the
discovery response frames and broadcast frames. When
the discovery process has finished, the Network Assistant
goes into promiscuous mode. In this mode, it processes all
frames and reports all stations that talk on the network.

Identifying Routers

The Network Assistant also transmits RIP requests and
ICMP router requests as part of its router discovery
process. These discovery packets request router
information, allowing the Network Assistant to locate
routers that have little traffic and are not sending routing
updates.

2-2

The Network Assistant will identify as a router any device
advertising one of the following router protocols: RIP,
IGRP, EIGRP, IRDP, or OSPF.

Therefore, if a router is statically configured (i.e., is not
sending out routing updates), it may not show up as a
router.

The Network Assistant will identify any IP device that is
transmitting periodic router updates as a router. Therefore,
the Network Assistant identifies a workstation that is
inadvertently configured as a router.

Pressing a flashing device icon displays a popup screen
that shows information about problems with that device.

Press

(Ping + SNMP) to ping the station or resource
and get any SNMP information available. For an IP ping,
the Network Assistant uses the source and router IP
addresses currently entered in the IP configuration screen
under Connectivity Tests. These addresses must be valid
to get a ping response. For an IPX ping, the Network
Assistant automatically determines a source address.

(Tool

To access the SNMP agent, the Network Assistant uses
the "public" community string (password). If the agent has
a different community string, access the SNMP Config

menu from the Central Setup screen (read “SNMP” in
Chapter 6).

After you press

(Ping+SNMP), the station's ping
results, SNMP name, description, and uptime (in days,
hours, minutes, and seconds) are displayed (Figure 2-7).
Note that the SNMP name is cut off at 22 characters to fit

(IEEE 802.2 and 802.3, Ethernet II, and SNAP). If more
than one server responds for a given file type, the
Network Assistant reports the first server that responded.

The File Server List shows the nearest 50 file servers,
based on hop count. This list is derived from SAP
responses from the first server in the Nearest Server list.

Sorting

Figure 2-12 shows a sample TCP/IP device list. Sorting
for devices running TCP/IP functions the same way as
Station Detail Display discussed in Table 2-1. Pressing

(Station List Sort) enables you to list devices based
on Name, Protocol, Device Type, Frame Count (Local
Stations), or MAC Address on the Sort Options screen
(Figure 2-13). You can also choose ascending or
descending sort order. Sorting does not apply for
