Test Type | Choose one from the pop-up menu:
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. |

|
Round Trip Delay (Milli. Sec) | Round trip delay in milliseconds. When chanTestType is testdelay, the result of the test can be read in chanRTResult. |

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. |
Local VP ID | Every VP connection will have a unique VP ID of between 1 and 340. This is sent to ASC at the time of VP connection setup. This number, along with the slot number, forms a number that is unique across the shelf. This will be set only when adding the connection. The range varies, depending on the BNM interface: STI 1100UNI 120NNI 1340AUSM-4P 1255 |
