1120 Local Area Network Diagnostic Tests
This procedure uses SSP procedures (for example, PROBLEM) to diagnose local area network problems.
Diagnostic tests for the local area network will attempt to locate problems in internal and external local area
network communications interfaces. There are three types of diagnostic tests for the local area network:
• Diagnostic tests during IPL
• Diagnostic tests during on-line problem determination
• Diagnostic tests during concurrent maintenance
Diagnostic Tests During IPL
Diagnostic tests during IPL test the local area network adapter.
Diagnostic Tests During On-line Problem Determination
Diagnostic tests during on-line problem determination test the local area network hardware.
Diagnostic Tests During Concurrent Maintenance
Station test (STATEST) permits on-line testing between the system and the local area network.
1. Run STATEST.
a. Key in STATEST and press the Enter key.
b. Follow the prompts.
