 The Maximum Bandwidth setting is only valid in the context of Tx, but not Rx.

6.7.4. Testing the Network

The Network Test option on the Diagnostics tab lets you verify IP network
connectivity. This test verifies if the driver is installed correctly and tests connectivity
to a gateway or other specified IP address on the same subnet.
The network test uses TCP/IP to send ICMP packets to remote systems, then waits for
a response. If a gateway is configured, the test automatically sends packets to that
system. If a gateway is not configured or if the gateway is unreachable, the test
prompts for a destination IP address.
Notes:
 The network test option is not available on adapters that are grouped into a team
(see Configuring Teaming).
 This feature can be used with Windows Server managed hosts only. It is not
available for hosts operating on Linux or other OSes. You can, however use BACS
on a Linux client to connect to a Windows Server host and run the network test
utility.
To run the network test using the BACS GUI
1. Click the name of the adapter to test in the Explorer View pane.
2. From the Select a test to run list, select Network Test.
3. To change the destination IP address, select IP address to ping, then click the
browse button (...). In the Network Test window, enter a Destination IP address,
then click OK.
4. Click Run.
The results of the network test are displayed in the Status field.
To run the network test using the BACS CLI
You can use the following CLI command to perform a network diagnostic test for the
specified target. This command is available for NDIS and virtual adapters.
BACScli -t <target type> -f <target format> -i <target ID> networkdiag [-p <IP
address>]
Examples:
1. The following command runs the network test for the current selected NDIS
adapter.
BACScli -t NDIS -f mac -i 0010181a1b1c "networkdiag -p 192.168.1.5"
2. The following command runs the network test for the current selected virtual
adapter. Since there is no IP address specified, BACScli will use gateway address
for the test.
