Smart Loopback
Smart Loopback
Allows transmitting back the received Ethernet stream of data while
interchanging the source and destination MAC addresses, IP addresses,
and/or UDP/TCP ports. However in Transparent (Pseudo-Physical) mode
the Smart Loopback operates as a physical loopback by transmitting all
received frames unaltered and without discrimination.
The Smart Loopback test can be created locally (refer to Ethernet Test
Applications on page 63) or remotely using an EXFO unit (refer to Discover
Remote Button on page 498) or a Third-Party device (see Third-Party
Remote Loopback on page 52).
