Running the Diagnostic Tests 5-5
Select Echo Server under the Test menu, and click the
Start button to make the computer an echo server.
If you are setting up an echo server on a computer with a
10 Mbps 3Com NIC
other than a 3C515-TX NIC, follow
these steps:
1 Select a computer to use as an echo server.
2 Insert the appropriate EtherDisk diskette into the
echo server computer’s drive A.
If the computer has a Fast EtherLink XL NIC (3C900-TX,
3C905-TPO, or 3C905-COMBO) installed, use the 3C90X
EtherDisk diskette.
Otherwise, use the EtherDisk diskette that came with
the NIC.
3 On the echo server computer, change to drive A at
the DOS prompt. Type the following to start the
Configuration and Diagnostic Program:
3cxxx [Enter]
where the XXX is the program name for a 10 Mbps NIC
indicated in Table 5-2, which corresponds to the type of
10 Mbps NIC in the echo server.
4 From the main menu, select Echo Server Setup.
The program notifies you that your computer is now
set up as an echo server. To run the test, follow the
instructions in “Starting the Group 3 Test.”
