Example
On the AXSM slot, get the round-trip delay for connection 1 10 100. This example contains four
command executions to illustrate how to obtain a list of logical ports; obtain a connection number; start
the test; and view the results. the commands are dspports, dspcons, tstdelay, and dspcon.
Step 1
Identify the logical ports on the card by executing dspports. For this example, the logical port (ifNum
in the display) is 1.
node19.1.AXSM.a > dspports
ifNum Line Admin Oper. Guaranteed Maximum Port SCT Id ifType VPI
State State Rate Rate (VNNI only)
----- ---- ----- ----- ---------- --------- ----------------- ------ ----------
1 1.1 Up Up 1412831 1412831 6 UNI 0
Step 2
Get the connection ID to provide to tstdelay. The connection identifier appears in NSAP format. In this
example, assume tstdelay execution occurs at the slave end of the SPVC. Take the significant digits
from the Identifier (01.0010.00100) to get the logical port, VPI, and VCI for tstdelay. These values are
1, 10, and 100.
node19.1.AXSM.a > dspcons
record Identifier Type SrvcType M/S Upld Alarm
------ ---------- ---- -------- --- ---- -----
0 01.0010.00100 VCC ubr1 S 0000ebfb none
1 01.0011.00101 VCC ubr1 M 0000ec27 none
Step 3
Execute tstdelay for logical port 1, vpi 10, vci 100. The system response shows that the command started
correctly and directs you to use dspcon or dspchantests to see the results.
node19.1.AXSM.a > tstdelay 1 10 100
Test started; Use dspcon/dspchantests to see test results
Step 4
Execute dspchantests to see the results as displayed by this command. The units of measure for the
round trip delay is microseconds.
node19.1.AXSM.a > dspchantests 1 10 100
Connection Id Test Type Direction Result Round Trip Delay
============= ========= ========= ======= ================
01.0010.00100: OAM Lpbk ingress Success 30000
Step 5
Execute dspcon to see the results as displayed by this command. The line with test results appears
towards the end of the display and begins with Loopback Type. The Direction field shows ingress,
indicating the tstdelay command produced these results. (If tstconseg had been the last test command,
this field would say egress.) The RTD (round trip delay) field shows 30000 microseconds.
node19.1.AXSM.a > dspcon 1 10 100
