The purpose of the Self Test Application is to provide a tool for verifying driver operation. When using the Self Test Application you may experience some degradation in system performance when running in Continuous mode. (For instance, the mouse may perform sluggishly.) This is due to FIPS 140-1 tests being performed for every one thousand random numbers generated. (FIPS 140-1 tests are resource intensive.) If you would like to change this setting: 1. In the Windows Explorer, double-click the following file: :\Sample Applications\SelfTest\selftest.ini where: is the drive specified during installation (C, by default) is the path specified during installation (\Program Files\Intel\Intel Security Driver, by default) 2. Modify the variable "RNG_Calls_Between_Test" To run the Self Test Application: 1. In the Windows Explorer, double-click the following file: :\Sample Applications\SelfTest\selftest.exe where: is the drive specified during installation (C, by default) is the path specified during installation (\Program Files\Intel\Intel Security Driver, by default) 2. Click the Help button to view online Help about the Self Test Application. Tips on using online Help: * Click the "Help Topics" button to access Contents, Index, or full text search. * On the Contents page, double-click the book icon to expand it, then double-click a topic ("?" symbol) to jump directly to a topic. * Click the left ( << ) or right ( >> ) browse buttons to browse backward or forward through the Help file. * Click other links on the page to access other topics (identified by underscored text or by buttons on the page). ************************************************************ * Part 4 - Updated Information ************************************************************ *** Overview *** This section includes new features from the previous release and/or updated information about the product that was added after the primary documentation was completed. *** New Features in This Release *** New features added since the Beta release include: * Self Test application -- The ability to specify the ratio of FIPS 140-1 tests being performed for a specified number of random numbers generated.
