Initializing the link
for MiM testing
Before you transmit layer 2 MiM traffic, you can specify inter-
face settings that provide the speed and duplex settings for
10/100/1000 Ethernet traffic, indicate how you want the unit to
handle flow control, and provide the pause quanta for trans-
mitted pause frames.
For detailed instructions on specifying these settings, refer to
“Initializing the link for Ethernet testing” on page 47.
Specifying frame
characteristics
Before you transmit layer 2 Ethernet traffic over a PBB trunk,
you can specify the frame characteristics of the traffic, such as
the backbone source address, destination address, tag
settings, and payload (Acterna test frames or BER patterns).
To specify Ethernet customer and backbone frame settings
1 Use the right arrow to go to the Ethernet - Backbone
Frame configuration menu, and then specify the following:
Setting Parameters
B-DA Enter the destination
address using a 6 byte
hexadecimal format.
B-SA Type Select Default or User
Defined.
B-SA
(if B-SA Type is User
Defined)
If you specified User
Defined, enter the source
MAC address using a 6
byte hexadecimal format.
