You can perform an ATM card loopback test on your Linux system by connecting a loopback cable to your ATM card. If you have a fiber based card, simply connect the transmitter and receiver together. An ATM loopback script is installed under /usr/share/doc/pktsrc/examples/atm-loopback-test
Before running the script, you must set the QACAFE_PRODUCT_LICENSE environment variable to either cdrouter or cdr-mp depending on the version of CDRouter that you are running. The script will report if the loopback test passes or fails.
