Chapter 6: User Diagnostics
6.1 Introduction
D-Link NetXtreme User Diagnostics is an MS-DOS based application that runs a series of
diagnostic tests (see Table 1: "MS-DOS Command Prompt Mode Command Options") on the
D-Link NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet adapters in your system. D-Link NetXtreme User
Diagnostics also allows you to update device firmware and to view and change settings for
available adapter properties. D-Link NetXtreme User Diagnostics can be run in either of the
following modes:
MS-DOS Command Prompt mode
Broadcom Command Line Interface (CLI) mode
In either mode, you can view the version of the adapter software and specify which adapter
to test and which tests to perform. The MS-DOS Command Prompt mode is useful for viewing
and changing the settings for available properties, updating and loading device firmware,
viewing the version of and printing the error log (if any) to a file. The Broadcom CLI mode is
useful for enabling/disabling available properties and enabling/disabling/selecting and
setting the speed and duplex mode of available protocols.
To run D-Link NetXtreme User Diagnostics, create an MS-DOS 6.22 bootable disk containing
the B57udiag.exe file. Next, start the system with the boot disk in drive A. See either Running
in MS-DOS Command Prompt Mode or Running in Broadcom Command Line Interface Mode
for further instructions.
