Local Loopback
61202156L2-1
Network interface loopbacks affect the entire T1 data
stream. See Figure 7-2. The two types of network loop-
backs are:
Line
Loops all of the received data back toward the network.
The transmitted data is the identical line code that was
received, including any bipolar violations or framing
errors.
Payload
Similar to line loopback, except that the framing is
extracted from the received data and then regenerated
for the transmitted data.
