ARGUS
3 Loop (GigE)
This Loop will take all incoming Ethernet frames at Layer 1 (L1) and send them back to the
sender unchanged.
In the case of a Loop on Layer 2 (L2) of the OSI model, the ARGUS swaps the source MAC
address with the destination MAC address and then sends all the incoming Ethernet
frames back.
Depending on the speed of the remote end, it is possible to Loop data rates up
to 1 Gbit/s.
The following parameters are required for the Loop:

The ARGUS will use the marked
profile as the default profile and
return to the Settings menu.
