Status
indicates

when the
loopback tool has been stopped.
Start Time:
The time when the Loopback Tool was started.
Transparent (Pseudo-Physical
) check box when selected (cleared by
default), determines that the Loopback tool operates as a physical
loopback by transmitting all received frames unaltered and without
discrimination.
In transparent mode, the Network tab is not available.
Note:
The
Transparent
mode is intended to be used for point-to-point topology,
not for switched or routed networks. Use the
Transparent
mode with
caution because all received frames are looped back without
discrimination.
Loopback Mode
determines at which layer the address/port swapping
is limited.
Ethernet
swaps the MAC addresses of received packets having
their
Destination MAC
address matching the MAC address of the
loopback port.
Ethernet (All Unicast)
swaps the MAC addresses of received
packets having Unicast
Destination MAC
address.
