8.2.6 Describe NMS tools. Network management system (NMS) tools include (Swr) level monitoring, configuration, and fault management tools. Examples of commonly used network management tools are CiscoView, HP Openview, Solar Winds, and What's Up Gold. Describe Knowledge bases. It contains troubleshooting procedures, implementation (Swr) guides, and original white papers on most aspects of networking technology. Describe Baselining Tools. Baselining help you with common baseling (Swr) documentation tasks. For example they can help you draw network diagrams, help you to keep network software and hardware documentation up-to-date and help you to measure baseline network bandwidth use. Describe Protocol Analyzers. A protocol analyzer decodes the various protocol layers in a (swr) recorded and presents this information in a relatively easy to use format. The information displayed by a protocol analyzer includes, the physical, data link, protocol and descriptions for each frame. Most protocol analyzers can filter traffic that meets certain criteria. Describe Network Analysis Module. A network analysis module (NAM) can be installed in (Hdw) Catalyst 6500 series switches and Cisco 7600 series routers to provide a graphical representation of traffic from local and remote switches and routers. The NAM is a embedded browser-based interface that generates reports on the traffic that consumes critical network resources. Describe Digital Multimeters. Digital multimeters (DMMs) are test instruments that are (Hdw) used to directly measure electrical values of voltage, current, and resistance. In network troubleshooting, most of the multimedia tests involve checking power-supply voltage levels and verifying that network devices are receiving power. Describe Cable Testers They are specialized, handheld devices designed for testing (Hdw) the various types of data communication cabling. Cabling testers can be used to detect broken wires, crossed-over wiring, shorted connections, and improperly paired connections. These devices can be inexpensive continuity testers, moderately priced data cabling testers, or expensive time-domain reflectometers (TDRs). Describe TDRs. TDRs (time-domain reflectometers) are used to pinpoint the (Hdw) distance to a break in a cable. Describe Cable Analyzers. Cable analyzers are multifunctional handheld devices that are (Hdw) used to test and certify copper and fiber cables for different services and standards. The more sophisticated tools include
