Fault-Isolation in Air Force Base Level Data Networks.

Abstract

The objective is to provide a single-ended fault isolation capability for base level data networks which can be used by the senior level computer operator. The network is examined in terms of useful information which is inherently available. We then determine what information is required to isolate faults to the which vendor level, suggest means to extract that information and examine off-shelf devices to accomplish that extraction. Based on construction of a Bare-Bones fault isolation facility, we conclude that the objectives can be met with off-shelf devices and that the payback is between 2 and 3 years. (Author)
