Overview:
BER testing at Layer 1, 2, 3, and 4 is supported. The BERT can be configured to use either regular PRBS test patterns, stress
patterns (specifically for 10Gigabit Ethernet) or user defined test patterns to simulate various conditions. The test layer, frame
header, traffic profile, error injection, and control settings of the far-end device (if applicable) must be configured prior to testing.
Layer 1:
Unframed mode (fiber ports only) or Framed mode
Unframed mode:
Test traffic consists of a bit stream of the selected test pattern
Framed mode:
Test pattern is encapsulated into a valid Ethernet frame with SOF, Preamble, and CRC field
Layer 2:
Framed BERT (same as Layer 1 Framed)
MAC Address:
A default or user configured Media Access Control (MAC) address is added to the frame
Layer 3:
Framed BERT (same as Layer 1 & 2 Framed)
MAC Address:
A default or user configured Media Access Control (MAC) address is added to the frame
IP Address:
A default or user configured IP address is added to the frame
Layer 4:
Framed BERT (same as Layer 1, 2, & 3 Framed)
MAC Address:
A default or user configured Media Access Control (MAC) address is added to the frame
IP Address:
A default or user configured IP address is added to the frame
UDP Address:
A user defined source and destination port address is added to the frame
