DSU Loopback
The local DSU can send an ITU-T V.54 Up or Down sequence to request the
activation or termination of a DSU (digital) loopback of a remote unit. This is the
same as the DSU Loopback shown above except the test is activated remotely.
The DSU can send an:
In-band V.54 Up (activation) code to request a Remote DSU Loopback
(V.54 Loop 2) at the remote DSU, or
In-band V.54 Down (deactivation) code to request the termination of a
Remote DSU Loopback (V.54 Loop 2) at the remote DSU.
Procedure
To start or stop a remote DSU loopback:
1. Position the cursor at the Send command next to Send V.54 Up or Send V.54
Down on the Network Tests screen.
2. Press Enter.
Sending appears in the Status column followed (after a few seconds) by
Command Complete at the bottom of the screen.
