ISDN Test Call Test (#258)
This test performs a far-end loop around to a far-end switch over an ISDN trunk.
The trunk’s service state must be in service, maint-NE, or out-of-service/NE, and
no call can be active on the trunk. The test call can be initiated as part of a long
test sequence, or as an individual test, as described below. This test is valid only
for systems using country protocol 1 (including US), or when the far end has
loop-around capability.
A test call connection is established to a far-end switch over the ISDN trunk to be
tested. The digital port on a TN711D Maintenance/Test circuit pack generates a
test-pattern bit stream that is sent to the far-end switch and echoed back. The
received pattern is then compared to the sent pattern and checked for errors that
indicate a loss of integrity on the communications path.
If a test call is running when scheduled maintenance starts, the green LED is
turned off. To determine whether a test call is still running:
■ Issue the list isdn-testcall and status isdn-testcall commands.
■ Check for a lit amber LED on the Maintenance/Test circuit pack.

Synchronous Test Calls
You can initiate a synchronous outgoing test call by entering one of the following
commands:
■ test trunk group#/member# long [repeat #]
■ test board UUCSS long [repeat #]
■ test port UUCSSpp long [repeat #]
