Enable round trip delay measurements
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
When to use
Use this procedure to:
• create an Ethernet service route for round trip delay (RTD) measurements,
• provision the related parameters of the test frame that is required for RTD
measurements,
• start a cyclic RTD measurement.
Note: The Enable round trip delay measurements procedure is also applicable to X5IP.

Ethernet service route RTD measurements are only supported for virtual switches
operating in one of the following modes:
• STP virtual switch mode compliant with IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging mode with
oversubscription (that is, with encoding of the dropping precedence)
• STP virtual switch mode compliant with IEEE 802.1ad (“Provider bridge mode”)
Select the desired virtual switch from the Virtual Switch List.
