l
Connection Test: Verifies network connectivity by pinging the DHCP server, WINS server, and gate-
way.
l
Cable Tests: Provide information about cable properties.
NOTE:
The Cable Test is not supported on all adapters. The Cable
Test will only be available on adapters that support it.
l
Hardware Tests: Determine if the adapter is functioning properly.
NOTE:
Hardware tests will fail if the adapter is configured for iSCSI Boot.
To access these tests, select the adapter in Windows Device Manager, click the
Link
tab, and click
Diagnostics
. A Diagnostics window displays tabs for each type of test. Click the appropriate tab and run the
test.
The availability of these tests is dependent on the adapter and operating system. Tests may be disabled if:
l
iSCSI Boot is enabled on the port.
l
FCoE Boot is enabled on the port.
l
The port is used as a manageability port.
l
The tests are being run from a virtual machine.
Testing from Windows PowerShell*
Intel provides two
for testing your adapter.
l
Test-IntelNetDiagnostics runs the specified test suite on the specified device. See the Test-
IntelNetDiagnostics help inside PowerShell for more information.
l
Test-IntelNetIdentifyAdapter blinks the LED on the specified device.
Linux Diagnostics
The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical
information. ethtool version 1.6 or later is required for this functionality.
The latest release of ethtool can be found at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel
.
NOTE:
ethtool 1.6 only supports a limited set of ethtool options. Support for a more complete ethtool
feature set can be enabled by upgrading ethtool to the latest version.
Responder Testing
The Intel adapter can send test messages to another Ethernet adapter on the same network. This testing is
available in DOS via the diags.exe utility downloaded from
DOS Diagnostics
Intel's diagnostic software lets you test the adapter to see if there are any problems with the adapter
hardware, the cabling, or the network connection. You can also use diagnostics to isolate problems during
troubleshooting.
