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 57) or remotely using either an EXFO unit (refer to
Discover Remote Button on page 380) or a Third-Party device (see
Third-Party Remote Loopback on page 51).
Typical Smart Loopback test application:
Supported Interfaces/Rates: 10M to 10G LAN/WAN and 100G.
