Navigation

Home screen – Displays link, speed/duplex, length, utilization, security authentication, connection, and

wire map information.

PING screen – Displays (scrolling from left to right) a Tx/Rx summary of all devices to the right which

will include: the Router, DHCP, DNS, and each user configured IP address.

LLDP (IEEE), EDP (Extreme Networks), CDP (CISCO) screen – Displays the switch address (MAC or IP),

switch name, slot/port, VLAN ID (optional), and VOIP VLAN Reply ID (optional).

Power over Ethernet - Displays the Power over Ethernet voltage levels for each Ethernet connector

pin.

Flash Hub Port screen – Causes the LinkRunner Pro to continuously link and unlink at a selected speed.

This is useful when identifying which port LinkRunner Pro is connected to. Use LLDP/EDP/CDP test first

if your network supports it.

Reports screen – Allows you to save up to 4reports. Each report contains a summary of the Home

screen, PING screen, and LLDP, EDP, CDP screen. The reports must be viewed on the LinkRunner

Connect PC application.

instrument to be used as a remote device for the Fluke Networks MetroScope™ Service Provider’s

network performance tests. Use the Configuration screen to set up the parameters.

Toner screen – Generates a digital tone (IntelliTone) signal , or two different analog tone signals

(400 Hz) and (1 KHz) to be used with Fluke Networks IntelliTone product or common analog

probes.

Configuration screen – Multiple menu functions are accessed in this screen. The configuration screen

accesses: the LinkRunner Pro version information; user preferences; enter up to 10 PING addresses;

enable options; edit or delete reports; configure and enable packet reflector mode; select a VLAN;
