Running the Internal Tests

The internal tests check the integrity of the on-board ASIC circuitry. The types of tests and number of test repetitions are set to the default values (that is, Internal tests enabled, External test disabled, and 10 repetitions per test).

To run all the internal tests, perform the following procedure:

1Physically disconnect the 3Com ATMLink NICs from the network.

2From the Select menu item on the main screen, select the NIC to be tested.

The Select menu is disabled if there is only one physical NIC installed in the system.

The MAC address identifies the physical NIC being tested. The MAC address is the 12-digit hexadecimal number on the small bar code label on the component side of the NIC.

3From the Test menu, select Test Setup.

The Test Setup screen appears, as shown in Figure 6-2.
