Station Locator

Station Locator is a OneTouch Series II Pro feature that
determines the switch and switch port where a station is
connected. It does this by searching for the MAC address
of the station in the forwarding tables contained in the
switch. Station Locator then displays pertinent switch
status and configuration information with port
identification and the location of a suspect station.

From the Connectivity Tests display, press

(Station

Locator) to access the Station Locator tabular display
(Figure 6-13) then the Find MAC or Find IP tab.

If you haven’t done so already, press

(IP Config) to

configure the Network Assistant addresses. You can
enter addresses manually or use DHCP (read “Central
Setup” in Chapter 2).
