HST-3000 Ethernet Testing User’s Guide
After you specify the layer 2 Ethernet settings, the initialization
process varies depending on the application you selected
(IPv4 or IPv6) and, if you are testing an electrical circuit, the
data mode (IPoE or PPPoE) that you selected. The following
procedures provide instructions for establishing an IPoE
connection:
– “Establishing an IPoE connection for IPv4 traffic” on
page 122
– “Establishing an IPoE connection for IPv6 traffic” on
page 124
If you need to establish a PPPoE session, see “Establishing a
PPPoE session” on page 128 .
Establishing an
IPoE
connection for
IPv4 traffic
In addition to the settings required to establish an Ethernet
link, when establishing an IPoE connection that will carry IPv4
traffic, you also specify settings that indicate whether you
want to use ARP to determine the link partner’s MAC address,
and indicate whether the unit has a static or DHCP-assigned
source IP, subnet, and gateway address.
To establish an IPoE connection that will carry IPv4 traffic
1 If you haven’t already done so, launch your IPv4 applica-
tion (see “Launching an application” on page 28 ), and
then select a test (see the appropriate procedure below):
– “Selecting a layer 3 IP test” on page 120
– “Selecting a layer 4 TCP/UDP test” on page 165
– “Selecting a multiple streams test” on page 182
2 Press the Configure navigation key.
A configuration menu appears.
3 Use the left and right arrow keys to go to the Link Init
menu, and specify the settings required to initialize an
Ethernet link (see
“Initializing the link for Ethernet testing”
on page 47 ).
