Verify Connectivity by Monitoring
Network Activity

Perform the following task to verify that the system recognizes the Ethernet
connection. Make sure that you are connected to an active network.

To monitor network activity of incoming network packets, type the following
at the ok prompt, including quotation marks and spaces:

ok setenv diag-switch? true

ok apply watch-net <full path name of the qfe interface>

Internal loopback test -- succeeded.
Transceiver check -- passed
Looking for Ethernet Packets.
'.' is a Good Packet. 'X' is a Bad Packet.
Type any key to stop.

ok

Note: <full path name of the qfe interface> in the example above

is the full path name of the qfe found with the show-devs
command at the ok prompt. For example:

/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@2/IntraServer,qfe@0,1
/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@2/IntraServer,qfe@1,1
/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@2/IntraServer,qfe@2,1
/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@2/IntraServer,qfe@3,1

Note: After testing is complete use the following command:

ok setenv diag-switch? False

to turn off diagnostic mode. If diag-switch? is left as true the time for the
system to initialize will increase.

Reboot the system after examining the network activity.
