Verification

This test program verifies configuration of the DFE-550FX as set
by the installation procedure, and assists with isolation of any
faults in operation. Verification and testing procedures are
optional, and will only be useful in the unusual event that there
is a fault, such as an interrupt number conflict among your
computer expansion cards. If your installation provides normal
operation, you might choose to skip these procedures.
The Verification Program provides two levels of testing: adapter
function testing and network operation testing..
Adapter testing does not require substitution of a loopback
cable. All procedures of the Adapter test may be carried out with
the network cable connection in place.
For the network operation test, the cable connecting your
station with its supporting hub must be in place. Network
testing involves the broadcast transmission of test packets from
the primary station. The test cannot be fully implemented
unless a second station on the LAN is available to the network
operation test, in order to return the test packets to the primary
station.
To run the Verification Program, proceed with these steps:
