To check to see if your analysis engine is running, run a "sh ver"

To check to see if your IDSM-2 is getting traffic, run a "sh int"

Turn on signature 2004 (echo request) and run a few pings past your sensor.

To check to see if your generating alerts in the past hour, run a "sh ev al past 01:00"
