Command Usage
◆
Loopback testing can only be performed on a port that is not linked up. The
internal loopback makes it possible to check that an interface is working
properly without having to make any network connections.
◆
When performing an internal loopback test, packets from the specified
interface are looped back into its internal PHY. Outgoing data is looped back to
the receiver without actually being transmitted.
Example
