|
This menu provides tests to help diagnose network hardware or TCP/IP network connection problems.
|
Embedded tests help to identify whether a network fault is internal or external to the product. Use an embedded test to check hardware and communication paths on the print server. After you select and enable a test and set the execution time, you must select EXECUTE to initiate the test.
|
Depending on the execution time, a selected test runs continuously until either the product is turned off, or an error occurs and a diagnostic page is printed.
|
|
|
|
|
| CAUTION:
|
Running this embedded test will erase your TCP/IP configuration.
|
This test performs an internal loopback test. An internal loopback test will send and receive packets only on the internal network hardware. There are no external transmissions on your network.
|
Select YES to choose this test, or NO to not choose it.
|
|
|
|
|
This test checks operation of HTTP by retrieving predefined pages from the product, and tests the embedded Web server.
|
Select YES to choose this test, or NO to not choose it.
|
|
|
|
|
This test checks operation of SNMP communications by accessing predefined SNMP objects on the product.
|
Select YES to choose this test, or NO to not choose it.
|
|
|
|
|
This test helps to identify data path and corruption problems on an HP postscript level 3 emulation product. It sends a predefined PS file to the product, However, the test is paperless, so the file does not print.
|
Select YES to choose this test, or NO to not choose it.
|
|
|
|
|
Select this item to run all the embedded tests. Select YES to run all tests, or select NO to not run all tests.
|
|
|
|
|
Use this item to specify the length of time (in hours) that an embedded test will be run. You can select a value from 1 to 60 hours. If you select zero (0), the test runs indefinitely until an error occurs or the product is turned off.
|
Data gathered from the HTTP, SNMP, and Data Path tests is printed after the tests have completed.
|
|
|
|
|
NO*: Do not initiate the selected tests.
|
YES: Initiate the selected tests.
|
|
|
|
|
This test is used to check network communications. This test sends link-level packets to a remote network host, then waits for an appropriate response.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|

|
If the ping test was not set for continuous operation, you can choose to print the test results. Select YES to print results. If you select NO (default), results are not printed.
|
|
|
|
|
Specify whether to initiate the ping test. Select YES to initiate the test, or NO to not run the test.

|
|
|
Shows the average round-trip-time (RTT), from 0 to 4096 milliseconds, for packet transmission and response.
|
|
|
|
|
Shows whether a ping test is in progress. YES indicates a test in progress, and NO indicates that a test completed or was not run.
|
|
|
|
|
When viewing the ping test results, this item updates the ping test data with current results. Select YES to update the data, or NO to maintain the existing data. However, a refresh automatically occurs when the menu times out or you manually return to the main menu.
|
|
|
|
|
The link speed and communication mode of the print server must match the network. The available settings depend on the product and installed print server. Select one of the following link configuration settings:
|
| CAUTION:
|
If you change the link setting, network communications with the print server and network device might be lost.
|
AUTO*: The print server uses auto-negotiation to configure itself with the highest link speed and communication mode allowed. If auto-negotiation fails, either 100TX HALF or 10TX HALF is set depending on the detected link speed of the hub/switch port. (A 1000T half-duplex selection is not supported.)
|
10T HALF: 10 Mbps, half-duplex operation.
|
10T FULL: 10 Mbps, full-duplex operation.
|
100TX HALF: 100 Mbps, half-duplex operation.
|
100TX FULL: 100 Mbps, full-duplex operation.
|
100TX AUTO: Limits auto-negotiation to a maximum link speed of 100 Mbps.
|
1000TX FULL: 1000 Mbps, full-duplex operation.
