6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for all ports present until:
At each pass, a different data type is used to create the frame from a palette of 7;
meaning if a pass of 7 is requested, 7 different frames are used in the test. If 8
passes, the first 7 frames are unique, and the 8th is the same as the first. The data
palette of 7 are:
Since this test requires that two ports can send and receive frames it is strongly
suggested that you run portloopbacktest before attempting to run this
test.
Operands
This command has the following operands:
passcount
speedmode
Example
To run a functional test of TXA and TXD connections:
switch:admin> txdpathtest
Running Tx Data Path Test ..... passed.

a. The number of frames (or passcount) requested is reached,
b. All ports are marked bad.

7) RANDOM:
Specify the number of times to perform this test. The default
value is 0xfffffffe. This operand is optional.
Specify the speed mode for the test. Valid values are 0, 1,
or 2. This parameter is only used for 2-Gbps based products
where it controls the speed at which each port is operated.
For 1-Gbps only products it is ignored.
