Port Loopback Tests
Each port lets you configure, start, and stop a PHY Layer local loopback test and display status. Note that
you can run just one port’s loopback test at a time.
With the x60xx in Hardware mode, just set the x60xx front panel
CL
–
FL
switch to the
CL
(copper
loopback mode) position to start and stop the loopback test.
In SW mode, the front panel
CL
-
FL
switch position is ignored. You can run the port loopback test via
either the CLI or the Web interface.
Port Loopback Test – CLI Method
1.
Access the x60xx through either a USB connection (see “
Starting a USB Session
”) or a Telnet session
(see “
Starting a Telnet Session
”).
2.
At the x60xx CLI command prompt, use the
go
command to switch to Port 1. Type
go c1 s
x
l1p=1
and press
Enter
(where x is the slot where the x6010 is located in the ION chassis). To control S6010
loopback, type
go c1 sx l1ap=2 l2p=1
and press
Enter
.
3.
Set the TDM Loopback type to PHY layer. Type
set tdm loopback type=phylayer
and press
Enter
.
4.
Start the Port 1 Loopback operation. Type
set tdm loopback oper
=
init
and press
Enter
.
5.
Stop the Port 1 Loopback operation. Type
set tdm loopback oper
=s
top
and press
Enter
.
6.
Set the x6010 front panel
CL
–
FL
switch to the
FL
(Fiber Loopback mode) position.
7.
Use the
go
command to switch to Port 2.
8.
Repeat steps 1-5 above for Port 2. For example:
C1|S4|L1P2>
set tdm loopback type phylayer
C1|S4|L1P2>
set tdm loopback oper init
C1|S4|L1P2>
set tdm loopback oper stop
C1|S4|L1P2>
show tdm loopback capability
Loopback capability: phyLayer
C1|S4|L1P2>
show tdm loopback state
Loopback type: phylayer
Loopback state: noLoopback
9.
Use the
show tdm config
command to display and verify the device-level TDM configuration:
C1|S4|L1D>
show tdm config
tdm type:
t1
10.
Use the
show tdm port config
command to display and verify the port-level TDM configuration for
each port.
