CANOGA PERKINS N525 Ethernet Termination Service Unit - Manual (Page 27)

N525 Ethernet Termination Service Unit 3-9
10. Max test payload (40 – 1954)
This sets the maximum test packet size in bytes. The maximum packet size
must be greater than or equal to the minimum packet size.
11. Test Packet Timeout sec
The packet timeout for this test in seconds. If a response is not received by
the packet timeout value, the packet will be classified as dropped. The value
set here is also used to set the maximum values that can be used for both the
Latency and Jitter Measurements.
12. Start/Stop test
Starts and Stops the test.
13. Remote Latency Test
When SideBand Management Channel (SBMC) is enabled, you can initiate
and view test results of the remote unit from the local unit.
Ping Generation
This is a network trouble shooting tool used to determine if a destination is reachable
from the NID. Self-Ping, pinging the Management IP Address tests connectivity
between the management processor and the N525’s FPGA. This is an additional
self-check function.
Remote Connectivity Loss Detection
This enables you to detect loss of connectivity to the remote N525, and to detect
undesired link performance. For more information see
Connectivity Loss Detection .
Port Information
The Port Information screen shows the current conditions for all ports in the N525 with
options to view parameters and statistics for specific ports. Configuration information
includes the model number, description, and revision; the serial number; and link,
remote fault, and physical status. You must set up each port that you will use before you
can set up or assign STP, VLANs or Tagging. Below are the sub menus where these
fields reside:
Link Status
Informs you of the current link status of both User and Extension ports of the NID.
