6. Perform the “net” test to verify your network connectivity.
Connect the Micro-CS to the Ethernet network either through the
internal AUI, or by connecting a jumper cable from the Ethernet port
on the Micro-CS to a MicroMMAC port. At the monitor:: prompt,
type “net”.
If the unit passes the test, the console displays “Passed”. If it fails, an
error message is displayed.
7. “Ping” the software load host, as well as the IP address of the
MicroMMAC. This will test the connectivity of the Micro-CS to a
remote device.
NOTE
You are prompted for the gateway address only if the internet
address differs from the preferred load host address based on
the subnet mask. If these addresses are the same, the
Micro-CS assumes there is no gateway.
