Automated test results management
Serving as a centralized test results and instrument management
system, the complimentary Link-Live Cloud Service transforms team
workflows with the ability to quickly and easily log, document, and
report test activity from any NetAlly LinkSprinter, LinkRunner AT,
LinkRunner G2, AirCheck G2, OneTouch AT, and EtherScope nXG
network testers. Once the tester is connected to the Link-Live Cloud
Service, your test results are automatically uploaded to the dashboard
for project management and reporting. You have the option of
uploading additional files, screenshots, images, profiles, packet
captures, location information, and comments anytime. Also, certain
NetAlly testers with AllyCare Support can receive firmware updates
“over the network” from Link-Live as they become available.
An API is available to retrieve and integrate data from Link-Live into other management platforms, such as your trouble-
ticket application or network management system. It gives you the ability provide proof-of-performance and better manage
jobs and sta eiciency.
This unified dashboard of both wired and Wi-Fi network connectivity results enables you to:
• Reduce results management overhead for multiple testers and users
• Enables seamless collaboration between site personnel and remote experts
• Simplify report generation across media types for network deployment documentation
• Attach photos, user comments to each result, adding context for future changes and troubleshooting
• For asset management, ability to associate serial numbers of installed devices, and/or cable/walljack label to specific test
results
The EtherScope nXG has dedicated Wi-Fi and Ethernet management ports
that empower a more experienced/knowledgeable remote engineer to
control the EtherScope nXG to collaborate with technicians on-site.
At locations with no Internet service, the Wi-Fi Management Port can
connect to a personal Wi-Fi hotspot for remote control, and upload results
to the Link-Live Cloud Service.
Apart from providing remote access, the dedicated management ports are
used for discovery to access to SNMP MIBs of devices via a management
VLAN isolated from client VLANs, and conduct Ping/TCP Connect tests and
iPerf tests.
