Result Description
Network Status Status of the connection. If
testing in Router mode, there are separate status
indications for WAN and LAN.
LAN x If using Multi-VLAN, reports the status of up to three LAN connections.
IP Address The SmartClass Triple Play Services's IP address to the access the provider net-
work. (IPv4)
Global If using IPv6oE, this is the SmartClass Triple Play Services's IP address to the
access the global network, beyond the router.
Local If using IPv6oE, this is the SmartClass Triple Play Services's IP address to the
access the local network.
Subnet prefix If using IPv6oE, this is the length of the subnet prefix.
Netmask The SmartClass Triple Play Services’s netmask address. IP devices use a net-
mask IP address to determine if IP packets are to be routed to other networks or
sub-networks. (IPv4)
Gateway The SmartClass Triple Play Services's gateway address. When an IP device has
determined that a packet is not addressed to it or devices on the same sub-net-
work (subnet), it sends all such packets to the gateway address for further routing
to the correct address.
DNS Domain Name Services. When using internet addresses such as www.jdsu.com,
the SmartClass Triple Play Services (and all IP devices) must translate to an IP
address (such as 157.234.12.20) in order to route the packets or data. To do so, it
first requests a DNS server to translate an internet address into an IP address;
then the SmartClass Triple Play Services can correctly route IP pings or other data.
The DNS address must be that of a real DNS server, preferably in the provider net-
work.
MAC Address The MAC address of the LAN.
