Abstract

A DSL network testing tool (110) tests multiple elements (141, 143) in a DSL circuit. The testing tool may operate in either a single circuit test mode or a batch mode. In batch test mode, the network testing tool receives multiple DSL phone numbers and automatically tests the DSL circuit's elements corresponding to the phone numbers. The test information may be used when troubleshooting or provisioning DSL circuits.
