Diag Type: Disr
Next NonD Disr
Diagnostic Type. Defines the diagnostic interaction between the control and tributary DSUs. All DSUs on the same circuit
must be set the same.
NonD – Nondisruptive Diagnostics. An in-band secondary channel transport carries diagnostics data between the control
and the tributary DSUs.
Disr – Disruptive Diagnostics. The same (primary) channel that carries user-transmitted data between the control and
the tributary DSUs also carries diagnostic data. Select this mode for compatibility with earlier releases that use disruptive
diagnostics. Valid for EBrdg.
Mixed – Mixed mode supports nondisruptive health and status updates. User-initiated commands are sent disruptively.
Mixed should only be selected in single-port multipoint configurations; not valid for point-to-point, EBrdg, or MCMP .
None – No diagnostic communications with remote devices; only allows local diagnostics.
2nd Ch(bps): 400
Next 100 400
In-band Secondary Channel Diagnostic Speed in bps. Determines the DSU's diagnostic speed when you select NonD
(nondisruptive diagnostics) and no excess bandwidth is available for in-band diagnostics. This configuration option only
appears when Diag Type is set to NonD.
For example:
– DSU port speed and DDS line speed are both set to 9.6 kbps (9600 bps)
– Diagnostic Type entered is NonD with diagnostic speed set to 400 bps
– Diagnostic speed of 400 is subtracted from the original 9600. In this example, the DSU port speed is
9.2 kbps (9200 bps).
100 to 1600 – Refer to the following list for valid diagnostic speeds.
If the DSU Rate(Kbps) equals the Port Speed, or the underspeed port speed and sum of the TDM ports is equal to the
aggregate speed on the DSU, use the following diagnostic speeds:

NOTE: When the TDM is operating at a line speed greater than 19.2 kbps or with a multipoint configuration,
100 bps is not a valid in-band secondary channel transport rate. TDM uses 10 bps of the DSU port bandwidth
for in-band framing and diagnostics.
