Network Diagnostics Tools

We have used the Fluke Networks Etherscope across our entire District to test and verify network drops, performance and connectivity issues. We have used it to verify info on our wireless network as well. Our IT department is responsible for not only connectivity at each site, meaning desktops, notebooks and Chromebooks but we are also responsible for site to site connectivity. When we have receive calls or emails that staff and students are having connectivity and network performance issues we use the Fluke Networks Etherscope. It is a great resource to isolate local network drop issues. We often use it to confirm and verify our connectivity over the WAN links. During critical times of the year, meaning online testing we can't afford to have network disruptions either at the local level or the district WAN level. The Fluke Networks Etherscope lets us solve problems both on our copper wired network and our fiber trunk feeds pretty quickly.

The Fluke Networks Etherscope can test network speed performance on copper and fiber networks
The Fluke Networks Etherscope can detect network switches and also available and active ports.
The Fluke Networks Etherscope can check for bandwidth between two points quick and easy.

The Fluke Networks Etherscope does not accommodate testing or working with 10 GB networks.
Hopefully the Fluke Networks Etherscope will continue to expand it's support of Wireless networks and the new technology that is coming out.
While not being a major issue, it would be nice to have the ability to print out summary reports direct from the Fluke Networks Etherscope.

The Etherscope does an excellent job tracking and locating line breaks and disruptions.
The Etherscope works very well at identifying wireless bottlenecks (lack of service) as well as LAN bottlenecks to the Access Points.
The Etherscope does an excellent job of identifying RF coverage and capturing noise ratio in a Wireless Environment.

Fluke Networks Etherscope has been beneficial for our environment because we can do an enormous amount of in-house testing now and do not have to outsource the work.
Fluke Networks Etherscope allows us to quickly locate and isolate issues both on the network on at the client-side with the excellent testing ability it offers.
Fluke Networks Etherscope allows us to quickly discover devices on our network so we can identify foreign devices that have been connected and utilizing our bandwidth.
We have not really experienced any negative impact with using this powerful too.

In a network outage, we used the Fluke Networks Etherscope to troubleshoot wireless issues and hardwired connections. It’s great for a junior admin to run several preconfigured diagnostics tests while a more senior admin is consoled into the switches running. It’s one of many tools that help with quickly identifying problems with the network and fixing them.
