Test Command

Tests I/O blades and ports using internal (SerDes level), external (SFP), and online loopback tests. Internal and external tests require that the port be placed in diagnostic mode. Refer to the ”Set Command” on page B-40for information about changing the I/O blade or port administrative state. While the test is running, the remaining ports on the switch remain fully operational.
