Network Testing
Display and validate network
node details quickly
The NaviTEK IE uses the following protocols to display the
most important network node parameters.
• Discovery and Control Protocol (DCP)
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
• Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)
Discover mis-configured devices that
cause a network conflict
The NETMAP comparison tool can also perform a scan of
the entire network to identify all active devices and save
this for comparison to future NETMAPS. This enables
easy identification of new or removed network devices,
incorrectly configured devices or configuration changes,
such as those caused by automatic firmware updates.
Correct network issues using the
discovery and configuration tools
The NaviTEK IE will discover the following list of faults:
• Incorrect device names
• Duplicate IP addresses
• Packet loss
If node configuration faults are found, easily
correct them using the simple configure tool.
Find intermittent issues
with the event log
The NaviTEK IE will record key network errors for up to
48hours including the following parameters. This will help
determine if a problem is with the cabling, node, PLC or the
network configuration.
• Device status
• Input/output errors
