About mxdiag.exe
==================================================
This program is using for MX98713, MX98715, MX98725, MX98723, and
MX98727 etc chips test. Three sets of Vendor ID and Device ID will
be searched automatically. If the parameters of the current lan
card do not match one of them, "Device not found" error message
will be reported.
set1:
Vendor ID : 0x10d9 (for MX98713)
Device ID : 0x0512
set2:
Vendor ID : 0x10d9 (for MX98715 and MX98725)
Device ID : 0x0531
set3:
Vendor ID : 0x10d9 (for MX98723 and MX98727)
Device ID : 0x0532

1.NIC Information.
The related information about MX987xx chips is shown in
this item which includes I/O address, Interrupt vector,
Vendor ID, Device ID, Network ID (MAC address), and Line
speed.
2.Network Diagnostic.
Four network diagnose functions are provided in this item.

2.1 Internal loopback:
Do an internal loopback test on MX987xx Family internal
function. The packet size is a random number between 60
and 1514.
2.2 Ping-Pong Test (Master Mode):
This selection forces adapter to send out packets (random
packet length ) and wait for echo. After receiving the echo,
compare them and accumulate the error status. To do this,
a responcer is needed in the network. The packet size is a
random number between 60 and 1514.
2.3 Ping-Pong Test (Slave Mode):
As a network responcer, it echoes all received packets.
3. Port Speed Select. (for MX98715, MX98725, and MX98727 only)

About "mxdiag eep"
=====================================================
Type "mxdiag eep", it will write eeprom from c46.pkt.
About "mxdiag eep"
=====================================================
Type "mxdiag eep", it turns out to be an EEPROM auto programming routine.
Before using this function, make sure that the content of EEPROM should
be all "0xff" ( a brand new EEPROM default value).
After executing "mxdiag eep", the following action will be taken:
1. Upload the content of file c46.pkt to the current EEPROM.
2. The CRC value will be calculated and programmed into EEPROM automatically.
3. The Network ID and Magic ID that defined in c46.pkt will be increased by 1.
According to "MX987xx EEPROM FORMAT" we get an example.
The contents of c46.pkt are:
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 01 01 00 00 12 34 56 78 00 00 12 34 03 00

After execute "mxdiag eep", the format show above will be programmed
into EEPROM. and the contents of c46.pkt turn out to be:
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
