Group 2 Diagnostic
The Group 2 diagnostic (Adapter Wrap Test) is a wrap test
that causes all user-transmitted data to be sent and received
without going to the network.
A lobe cable must be connected from the selected adapter to
a retiming concentrator or MAU for all tests.
Running Diagnostic Tests
The Configuration and Diagnostic Program can be started
from the menus or the DOS command line. For command
line instructions, see the INSTRUCT.TXT file in the \DIAG
subdirectory on the
TokenDisk
diskette.
You need to unload the drivers to run the diagnostic program.
To unload drivers, exit this program and boot using a DOS
diskette.
