BACKPLANE TEST

If you plan to utilize the ESXMIM Channel A connection (default), you
may want to verify that packets can pass over the network backplane
through the ESXMIM. Again, you can use two workstations set up as file
server and client. See Figure 3-13.
1. After the ESXMIM is installed in the MMAC, connect the client
workstation to any ESXMIM port (except for port 1).
2. Connect the server workstation to another Ethernet MIM that is
accessible from Channel A (i.e., a RIC MIM, if controlled by an
EMME or EMM-E6, a MIM that resides on Channel A in a hub
controlled by an IRM, or any Ethernet MIM in a hub controlled by an
EMME or EMM-E6, including the management modules).
3. Send packets between the two workstations to verify the proper
operation of the ESXMIM. A "ping" test will send packets from one
station to another.
If a failure occurs, contact Cabletron Systems Technical Support.
