3.6 BACKPLANE TEST
Once the EMM-E6 has been installed in the network environment, you
may wish to test the operation of the Ethernet bridging functionality and
the EMM-E6’s connection to the chassis backplane. Again, you can use
two workstations set up as file server and client. See Figure 3-11.
1. After the EMM-E6 is installed in the MMAC, connect the client
workstation to the EMM-E6 EPIM 1 port.
2. Connect the server workstation to another Ethernet MIM that is
accessible from an Ethernet channel in the MMAC-FNB hub.
3. Send packets between the two workstations to verify the proper
operation of the EMM-E6. A “ping” test will send packets from one
station to another.
If a failure occurs, contact Cabletron Systems Technical Support.
