CiscoHDLC LAPS(X.86) MAPOS version1 MAPOS 16 In addition to F-GFP and Ethernet frames, the MP1590B also supports IP, TCP, UDP, VLAN, MPLS, and other transmission frame protocols. The configuration of the frames being edited can be verified on the same screen, enabling precision editing.
Page 43
By using the frame transmission function together with this function, pseudo-application traffic can be created and therefore the QoS of a total system can be verified with one MP1590B unit. (3) RFC2544 standard automatic measurement The RFC2544-standard automatic measurement function is provided to evaluate the basic performance of network components.
STS-192 (STM-64) or STS-48 (STM-16), various mappings used for SONET (SDH) can be selected. The MP1590B random error insertion function can evaluate whether the FEC function of the DUT meets the requirements of ITU-T G.709. By using the optional optical output power adjustable function, the error correction ratio to the optical input power of the DUT can be tested with a single MP1590B unit.
