iscsiPathTest

Performs functional test of components in iSCSI complex.

Synopsis iscsipathtest --slot slotnumber -unit number -path mode -nframes count

Description Use this command to verify the functions of the network processor and the iSCSIcomplex. All data path

modes (as described in the -path operand filed below) run test by comparing the FC frames or data

packets transmitted from and received by the BCM1125H network processor due to the designated

loopback points.

Operands This command has the following operands:

--slot slotnumber Specifies the slot number that the diagnostic will operate on. The default is set to

0 and designed to operate on fixed-port-count products.

-unit number Specifies the GE port to test. By default all the GE ports in the specified slot

slotnumber will be used. This number will be between 0 and 7. 8 will mean all

ports.

-path mode Selects the loopback point for the test. By default, iscsiPathTest uses PHY and

Central ASIC loopback. Valid values are:

• 1

Data packets from network processor to GE RJ-45 loopback.

• 2

Data packets from network processor to GE PHY loopback.

• 3

Data packets from network processor to GE GMAC loopback.

• 4

FC frames from network processor to Central ASIC FC Serdes loopback.

• 5

FC frames from network processor to serial loopback at iFlipper FC serdes.

• 6

FC frames from network processor to parallel loopback at iFlipper FC serdes.

• 9

Data packets from network processor to loopback at network processor 8-bit

FIFO.

-nframes count Specifies the number of frames to send. The test will progress until the specified

number of frames has been transmitted on each port. The default value is 100.
