NDC 10/100 Auto PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter Diagnostic Program
------------------------------------------------------------
Before you install the drivers and connect the 10/100 Auto PCI Fast Ethernet
Adapter to the network, make sure to run the diagnostics to assure the proper
function of the 10/100 Auto PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter. The diagnostics includes
two groups of test :
1. Card initialization and loopback test
This test performs the function of verifying the components, connectors,
and circuitry.
2. Network test
This test performs the data transmission and reception of the adapter.
A screen menu provides you with the instructions to conduct this test.
For more information about Network test, see attached test item explanation.
