Cisco ASR 9000 Series Command Reference Guide

bert pattern
To enable a bit error rate test (BERT) pattern on a T3/E3 or T1/E1 line or an individual channel group, use
the bert pattern command in T3, E3, T1, E1, or channel group configuration mode. To disable a BERT
pattern, use the no form of this command.
bert pattern {0s| 1in8| 1s| 2^11| 2^15| 2^20| 2^20-QRSS| 2^23| 2^9| 3in24| 55Daly| 55Octet| alt-0-1|

no bert pattern {0s| 1in8| 1s| 2^11| 2^15| 2^20| 2^20-QRSS| 2^23| 2^9| 3in24| 55Daly| 55Octet| alt-0-1|

Syntax Description
Invokes a repeating pattern of zeros (...000...).0s
(T1 and E1 only) Invokes a repeating pattern of one (1) bit in eight (8).1in8
Invokes a repeating pattern of ones (...111...).1s
(Channel group only) Invokes a pseudorandom O.151 test pattern that is 32,768 bits
in length.
2^11
Invokes a pseudorandom O.151 test pattern that is 32,768 bits in length.2^15
Invokes a pseudorandom O.153 test pattern that is 1,048,575 bits in length.2^20
Invokes a pseudorandom quasi-random signal sequence (QRSS) 0.151 test pattern that
is 1,048,575 bits in length.
2^20-QRSS
Invokes a pseudorandom O.151 test pattern that is 8,388,607 bits in length.2^23
(Channel group only) Invokes a pseudorandom 0.153 test pattern of 511 bits in length.2^9
(T1 and E1 only) Invokes a repeating pattern in which three (3) bits in twenty-four
(24) are set to one (1) and the others are set to zero (0).
3in24
(T1 and E1 only) Invokes a repeating pattern of fifty-five (55) 8-bit octets of data.
This pattern introduces rapid transitions from long sequences of low-density octets to
high-density octets, high-density octets to low-density octets, and rapid 1010 bit
transitions.
55Daly
(T1 and E1 only) Invokes a repeating pattern of fifty-five (55) 8-bit octets of data.
This pattern has fifteen (15) consecutive zeros.
55Octet
Invokes a repeating pattern of alternating zeros and ones (...01010...).alt-0-1
(Channel group only) Invokes a repeating sequence of 100x FFh, followed by 100x
00h. This combination of minimum and maximum densities causes stressing of the
signal recovery circuitry.
