Using dmUtil dpm driver utility: 
 
The “dpm driver utility” is used to capture detailed board levels statistics, controller 
registers and to set loopback mode. Example usage of the “dmUtil” are as follows: 
 

dmUtil -s eth1 

 

# get driver statistics for interface 1 

 
dmUtil –p eth1       

# get phy (transceiver) registers for interface 1 

 
dmUtil –m eth1 

 

# get MAC (PCI controller) registers for interface 10 

 
dmUtil –t eth1 

 

# get execution debug trace for interface1  
 (DEBUG_FLAGS trace option must be compiled in) 

 
dmUtil –e eth1 

 

# get eeprom configuration settings 

 
dmUtil –ms eth1      

# get mac MIB statistics 

 
dmUtil –a eth1 

 

# get mac address 

 
dmUtil –w eth1 <0,1,2> 

# write default eeprom configuration to controller 

 
 
dmUtil –l eth1 <arg> 

# set controller in internal loopback mode 
(driver must be compiled with –DNS_FRAME_TEST  
in Makefile). Arg=1 for enable, 0 for disable. 

 
 

 

Driver utility shell commands for vxWorks driver operation are shown in the next
