To help in the development of the Ethernet driver, Micrium provides a Windows-based tool called the Network Driver Integrated Tester (NDIT). The NDIT encapsulates many of the performance tests that you perform on your driver during development. It handles synchronisation between the test station and the target device, and parses and displays test results, all in one interface.

Tools that may help you during the design or tuning phase are presented in this chapter. These tools test and exercise different parts of the Ethernet device driver and can help uncovering flaws in the implementation of the driver. A set of test procedures is also provided in order to validate the proper behavior of the driver.
