Windows Diagnostic Test Descriptions - Lenovo 8200 Series Installation Manual

For every test performed, the diagnostic utility shows the following data:
• Total number of attempts
• Number of successful completions
• Number of failures
You can either perform all tests in succession, or perform only specific tests specified by the preceding
command-line parameters.
You can run additional diagnostics in the CLI as listed in the following table. To determine the
cna_port_inst, issue the qaucli -nic –i command as shown in Table 16.

qaucli -nic -extloopback <cna_port_inst> <tests_num> <on_error>
Where <tests_num> specifies the number of tests, 1–65535, and <on_error> is
either 0=Ignore or 1=Abort.
Note: This test requires a pass-through module to be configured for both ports. Test
runs between two ports. Single port loopback is not supported.

out_ms=1000, and TTL=30
