Network Testing with the FrameScope Pro

Performing a MAC or IP Loopback Tests

The master FrameScope Pro sends periodic MAC-level or
IP-level messages to the slave FrameScope Pro with

echoes back each of these messages. The master FrameScope

frames, as well as the current, average, minimum, and
maximum frame delays.
