1212.0. "DEMFA TEST Looopback no change" by JOBURG::HARRIS () Wed May 28 1997 07:08

    More DEMFA Woes
    
    Console V4.8-6
    
    TEST -t 500 DEMFA0
    
    With or without the loopback makes no difference to this test!!!
    
    Why?
    
    We need the Diags to correctly test the Module, cable, Bulkhead,
    loopback or do an internal loopback IF requested.
    
    Short of another IPMT case, could someone comment on
    how/why/solveable/seen/solution?
    
    
    Regards

1212.1TEST default is internal loopback modeMAY30::AMATOBob AmatoWed May 28 1997 12:5912
       
    This isn't surprising since the "TEST" command defaults to internal 
    loopback mode when testing the DEMFA.  To test using external loopback
    mode try:
    
    		 >>>net_ex fxa0 -t 2    
    
    This runs the network exerciser test 2 (external loopback ) on port 
    fxa0 (DEMFA).

    The most up-to-date source for this information I have found is the 
    Alpha Server SRM Console Command Line Interface document.  It is for 
    INTERNAL USE ONLY and comes "as is".  You can get a Post Script version
    from:
