Description
Use this command to verify the ASIC frame–level filtering logic including every type of filter actions:
FLTACT_LIST_A
FLTACT_LIST_B
FLTACT_FROZEN
FLTACT_DISCARD
FLTACT_FORWARD
This command can be run on every port and send the frame in internal loopback mode. The filter test
requires two different ports in the same quadrant because the filter logic in the transmitter port cannot
work if the frame is sent directory from the embedded port.
In this test, the filter definition covers the different filtering conditions, shown in
