What program gave you this output?

You could try to build & run one of the network tests, e.g.
'ping_test' to verify your hardware.  Here's how I do it:

  % ecosconfig new <platform> net
  % ecosconfig tree
  % make -s
  % make -C net/common/current tests TESTS=tests/ping_test

This will build just the one test which you can then download and run.
