TEstlink
Runs a test of the link between the bridge and another addressable device (a destination node)
by sending IEEE 802.2 "test" packets to that node.
You are prompted for:
the destination node's station address.
the number of test packets to try.
the timeout value (how many seconds the bridge will wait for a response from the
destination node before reporting an error). A one-second timeout value is usually
sufficient.
Note
The destination node must be an 802.3 device that can respond to the test
packets. Ethernet devices do not recognize 802.2 test packets.
See chapter 5, "Troubleshooting", for more information on using the Testlink command for
testing the network.
TIme
Displays the amount of time since the last time the bridge was reset. The reset procedures are
described later in this chapter under "Resetting the Bridge".
