Running End-to-End (ECHO) Tests
Run echo tests using the End-to-End (ECHO) Test section of the Diagnostics tab. The
end-to-end test enables you send an ECHO command/response sequence between an
adapter port and a target port. (Not available in read-only mode.)
Note: Not all remote devices respond to an echo command. You cannot run the ECHO
test and the External Loopback test concurrently. If you select the ECHO Test
the External Loopback test is disabled.
To run end-to-end echo tests:
1. From the discovery-tree, select the adapter port from which to initiate the
End-to-End (ECHO) Test.
2. Select the Diagnostics tab. Click Advanced Diagnostic Tests.
Check Echo Test. Enter the World Wide Port Name (WWPN) for the target.
Click Select From List if you do not know the actual WWPN of the test target. The
Select Echo Test Target dialog box appears. Select the port to test from the tree-view
