The LinkRunner G2 is an Android-based network testing and troubleshooting tool. It allows networking professionals to easily verify network connectivity and PoE functionality and to validate cabling. LinkRunner G2 can also act as
a packet reector for performance tests run by
other netAlly testers and includes a VLAN Monitor and packet Capture tools.
• The LinkRunner G2 interface applies many of the operations typical of any Android device. Use swiping touchscreen motions to navigate through screens and to drag down the top noti­cation panel.
• The LinkRunner G2 features a main AutoTest screen, a Switch Test screen, and a Cable Test
screen. Swipe le and right to move through the
three test screens.
• To run AutoTest, connect the RJ-45 port or the Fiber port on the top of the LinkRunner G2 to an active network switch. Touch the NetAlly logo icon at the bottom of the screen to open the LinkRunner G2 testing application.
• The Switch test tab displays the information from the nearest switch information from the initial switch port advertisement (CDP, LLDP).
• The Cable test can help you determine cable length and status, wiremap patch and structured cabling, and locate cables.
