ServerNet II PCI Adapter and Switch Installation Guide

Results From the Echo Test

The next four examples show the Echo Test results from each computer for the problem shown
in Figure G-12.

Figure G-13. Example 10 Results of the Echo Test Running on computer HW-TB6-S03

Figure G-14. Example ll Results of the Echo Test Running on computer HW-TB6-S10

Each row in the following table represents one test. The first column

indicates the result of the test. The second column is the port of the

local node out of which the test ServerNet packet was sent. The third

column is the name of the target processor node. The fourth column is

the ServerNet Id of the target node.

This test was run from (Local Host) computer 'HW-TB6-S03'.
