Specify the number of times (or number of frames per port) to execute this
test. Default value is 20. Valid values include:
0 Run the test on timeout mode.
-1 Run indefinitely.
Specify the delay between frames sent by portTest, in milliseconds. The
default value is 10 milliseconds.
Specify the number of seconds to run the test. Setting the iteration to 0 puts
the portTest process into timeout mode. The default value is 0.
Specify the pattern of the test packet payload. Twenty types of predefined
patterns are provided with the test. Use the dataTypeShow command to view
the types of pattern that are supported with portTest. The default pattern
type, if no pattern number is specified, is RANDOM (type=11)
Specify the size of the pattern. The default pattern size is 1024 bytes. The
range is 4 to 2112 bytes.
Specify the seed pattern to be used with the pattern. The default seed value
is 0xaa.
Specify the type of ports to run portTest. The following values are predefined
for porttype:
-1 All ports (default).
-2 All L_Ports.
-3 All F_Ports.
-4 All E_Ports.
-5 All N->N loopback ports.
