Fiber Manager performs Y-style tracing by default. If you have any X-style splitters in your network, change this to X-style tracing instead. You can use directional tracing with either the X- or Y-style tracing types. To choose a tracing option, select the checkbox next to it, then click OK. A full description of X- and Y-style tracing is available in the Appendix.
Directional tracing allows you to determine in which direction the trace travels. When this option is disabled, the trace travels in all available directions. If you enable directional tracing, the trace will travel only in a direction you define. A full description of directional tracing and how it interacts with X-style and Y-style tracing is available in the Appendix.
Use this field to determine which splice type is selected by default when the you open the Connection Manager. You can adjust the default loss values for each configured splice type. Changing the default values does not affect existing data.
 |
If you want to adjust default loss values for more than one splice type, click the Apply button before selecting another splice type. |
Connection Manager displays a warning dialog when disconnecting items which are normally connected permanently (e.g., backside ports). Uncheck this option to suppress warning messages.
