For optical interface, directly connect Port 1 to 2 and Port 3 to 4 through SFP and Optical cable (for Optical interface test).
OR "All Port BERT" test scenario can be demonstrated on 10G ports and 2.5G Ports by directly connecting Port 1 to 2 through
SFP and Optical cable (for Optical interface test).
Step 1: Connect the cables
Perform Test on 10G/2.5G Optical Interface
Note:
•
Optical Interface test is possible on 10G/2.5G Port 1 and Port 2.
