Configuring ARP Using the CLI Commands
The following table summarizes the equivalent CLI commands for setting fields displayed in the ARP
Settings page.
The following is an example of the CLI commands:
Running Cable Diagnostics
The Diagnostics page contains links to pages for performing virtual cable tests on copper and fiber optics
cables. To open the Diagnostics page, click System → Diagnostics in the tree view.
Viewing Copper Cable Diagnostics
The Integrated Cable Test for Copper Cables page contains fields for performing tests on copper cables.
Cable testing provides information about where errors occurred in the cable, the last time a cable test
was performed, and the type of cable error which occurred. The tests use Time Domain Reflectometry
(TDR) technology to test the quality and characteristics of a copper cable attached to a port. Cables up
to 120 meters long can be tested. Cables are tested when the ports are in the down state, with the
Table 6-27. ARP Settings CLI Commands
