Ethernet loopback is a feature that you can use for verifying the connectivity and identifying
or isolating faults in a network.
On ACX Series routers, Ethernet loopback is supported on the egress user-to-network
interfaces (UNIs) direction for a
loopback is configured on the logical interfaces. The Ethernet loopback feature can be
used in performance measurements where packets are looped back to the measuring
device for testing various services.
Figure 70: Testing End-to-End Service in Ethernet Loopback Mode
Figure 70 on page 1355 shows a scenario where UNI-B interface is configured in Ethernet
loopback mode in the egress direction. The packets received on the network-to-network
interface (NNI) of the ACX Series router are forwarded to the UNI-B interface and looped
back at the UNI-B interface after the source and destination MAC addresses are swapped.
This is a use case for testing an end-to-end service.
You can use the following optional parameters to identify an egress traffic flow for
Ethernet loopback:
Source MAC address
Destination MAC address
Source IPv4 address
Destination IPv4 address
VLAN
VLAN .1p priority
EtherType
Test iterator duration
