Verifying Driver Installation and Configuration

Perform the following procedures to verify that the driver is installed and operative:

■If you are using TCP/IP, ping the ATMLink end station that you want to test.

■Check the link LED.

The LED is lit when the driver is loaded and a good connection is made to the ATM switch. The LED on a standby NIC does not light unless the NIC changes to active status.

■Launch the ATMLink utility and check the State parameter in the ELAN Information window. A functional ELAN is designated as OPERATIONAL.

■Check the Windows NT events log for any messages about the newly configured ELANs and NICs.
