PRE-INSTALLATION TEST
Before installing the ESXMIM in a live network, you may want to test the
module in a controlled situation to ensure that it is switching packets. You
can perform this test with two workstations (see Figure 3-2), using an
MMAC with an ESXMIM installed and set up as follows:
1. Install the ESXMIM into an MMAC that is not attached to a network.
Move between Ports
Client Workstation
Figure 3-2 Pre-Installation Test Configuration
2. Connect the first workstation to any ESXMIM port (except for
port 1).
Port 1 requires a Local Management change to access the
NOTE
ESXMIM front panel (Default = Channel A connection). Refer to
the Configuration Screen section of the ESXMIM/ESXMIM-F2
Local Management Guide .
3. Connect the second workstation to any other ESXMIM port (except
for port 1).
