When you enable this option on a connection (channel), all the cells that are coming from the network side would be looped back toward the network and all the frames coming from the user side would be dropped. Choose disable or enable from the pop-up menu.

Test Type

Choose one from the pop-up menu:

  • testcon: tests the continuity of the connection

  • testdelay: tests the continuity of the connection and measures for delay through the network.

  • notest

The chanTestType starts testing the continuity or delay of a connection. It sends specific cell patterns toward the network and the terminating end of this connection has to be an AXIS or ASI of a BPX in order for this test to work. The receiving node would loop back when it receives these cells. The test should be complete in a few seconds.

To test the delay, follow these steps:

    1. Set chanTestType to testdelay.

    2. Read chanTestState until it is Pass or Fail.

    3. Read chanRTDResult for the delay if it is Pass. The chanTestType will return to notest when the test is completed.

To test the continuity, follow these steps:

    1. Set chanTestType to testcon.

    2. Read chanTestState until it is Pass or Fail.

You cannot select two tests back to back. You must select test and wait for the result before starting the other test.

Test State

State of the test. Choose one from the pop-up menu:

  • inprogress: The state of chanTestState when you select any test.

  • notinprogress: The state of chanTestState when a connection is added.

Test Type CPE Side

ChanTestType starts testing the segment continuity of a connection. It sends OAM Segment Loopback cells toward the port side (CPE). The CPE loops back the cell. Choose testconseq or notest from the pop-up menu. Notest is the default.

To test the continuity, follow these steps:

    1. Set chanTestTypeCPESide to testconseq.

    2. Read chanTestState until it is Pass or Fail. chanTestType returns to notest when the test is completed.

Test State CPE Side

State of the test. Choose one from the pop-up menu:

  • inprogress: The state of chanTestState when you select any test.

  • notinprogress: The state of chanTestState when a connection is added.

  • passed: Passed test.

  • failed: Failed test.

Egress Percent Util

Percentage utilization of the EgrService Rate, used for Egress bandwidth calculation and connection admission control.

Egress Service Rate

Used for Egress bandwidth calculation and for connection admission control. The actual value depends on the speed of the logical port, which can be a T1, E1 (normal), E1 (clear), IMA T1, IMA E1 (normal), or IMA E1 (clear) port. The IMA's port speed is variable and depends on the number of links in the port. In AUSM, the maximum value is 4830.

Oversubscribe Override

Allows you to add a new connection on a port, even if it is oversubscribed. Choose disable or enable from the pop-up menu.

The range varies, depending on the BNM interface:

STI 1100UNI 120NNI 1340AUSM-4P 1255

Enable/Disable RM Cells

Enables and disables the sending of Resource Management Cells. Choose disable or enable from the pop-up menu.

Ingress Discard Option
