Enabling Remote Loopback Testing
You can configure the router to request that compatible devices connected at the
following layers enter into a loopback:
You can also configure the router to start loopback testing when it receives an
appropriate signal from a devices connected at any of these layers.
For a list of the modules that support remote loopback, see ERX Module Guide,
Appendix A, Module Protocol Support.
NOTE: There is no protocol that allows remote loopback on E1 links.
To enable remote loopback:
1.
2.
Use the no version to turn off the loopback.
See path ds3 loopback.
Use to configure a loopback at the T1 over T3 layer.
Specify one of the following options:
local Loops the router output data back toward the router at the T1 framer;
on supported line modules, also sends an alarm indication signal (AIS) out
toward the network.
network { line | payload }
Specify the line keyword to loop the data back toward the network before
the T1 framer and automatically set a local loopback at the HDLC
controllers.
Specify the payload keyword to loop the payload data back toward the
network at the T1 framer and automatically set a local loopback at the
HDLC controllers.
Example
host1(config-controll)#path 12 ds3 2 t1 14 loopback network line
Use the no version to clear the local loopback configuration.
See path ds3 t1 loopback.
T1 over SONET/SDH VT layer
T1 over T3 layer
T3 layer
Select a controller.
Configure remote loopback at the desired layers in the interface.
