CA 2375429

Techniques are provided for improved fault isolation and fault reduction. A system for use with a data network includes multiple diagnostic units each adapted to communicate with the network including to a network user. A central controller is operatively connected to the diagnostic units, the controller being adapted to communicate with and coordinate operations of the diagnostic units, to instruct the diagnostic units to perform tests adapted to help isolate a network fault, and to analyze test results received from a diagnostic unit to attempt to determine the network fault. Various methods for improving fault isolation and fault reduction are also provided.

La présente invention concerne des procédures permettant d'améliorer la localisation et la suppression des pannes. En l'occurrence, un réseau de données inclut plusieurs unités de diagnostic capables chacune de communiquer avec le réseau comprenant un utilisateur du réseau. Un contrôleur central, fonctionnellement relié aux unités de diagnostic, est conçu pour communiquer avec les unités de diagnostics et d'en coordonner le fonctionnement. Il est également conçu, d'une part pour commander aux unités de diagnostic d'effectuer des tests conçus pour localiser un incident réseau, et d'autre part pour analyser les résultats de tests reçus des unités de diagnostic de façon à tenter de déterminer la panne réseau. L'invention concerne également divers procédés permettant de mieux localiser et supprimer les pannes.
