Chapter 5 Datacom Testing
Frame Relay testing
SmartClass E1 Tester User’s Guide 67
Burst Tx Time
(Burst loads only)
Time, ranging from 0.1 to 99.9 seconds, during which
the
E1/Datacom Tester transmits a burst of traffic
between idle time.
Note: To type a decimal point, use the asterisk (*) key
on the
E1/Datacom Tester keypad.
Burst Idle Time
(Burst loads only)
Time, ranging from 0.1 to 99.9 seconds, during which
the E1/Datacom Tester is idle and does not transmit
traffic between bursts.
Min Frm.Len Tx
(Fixed and Burst
loads only)
Enter a value, from 5 to 9999 bytes, for the minimum
frame length to be transmitted.
Note: Assigning the same value to the Min Frame Len
Tx and Max Frame Len Tx will cause a fixed-length
frame to be transmitted.
Max Frm.Len Tx
(Fixed and Burst
loads only)
Enter a value, from 5 to 9999 bytes, for the maximum
frame length to be transmitted.
Payload
(Fixed and Burst
loads only)
Select the type of payload:
– Seq Test: Transmits a sequential count from 0 to
65,535. The remainder of the data is a fixed pattern.
Generated frames that are not of a length sufficient
to conform to RFC 2427 will not have a TTC Test
Frame Header. The
E1/Datacom Tester analyzes
received TTC test frames sequence numbers to
check for lost frames.
– User 1 Data: Transmits a user-defined hexidecimal
payload from 1 to 64 bytes long.
– User 2 Data: Transmits a user-defined hexidecimal
payload from 1 to 64 bytes long.
– Seq + User 1: Transmits the sequential count (0 to
65,535), and then the user-defined hexidecimal pay-
load.
Note: If you select the User 1 Data, User 2 Data, or Seq
+ User 1 payload, be certain to define the data.
User 1 Data
(User 1 Data or
Seq + User 1
payloads only)
Enter a hexidecimal value from 1 to 64 bytes long.
User 2 Data
(User 2 Data
payload only)
Enter a hexidecimal value from 1 to 64 bytes long.
Src.IP Address
(Ping loads only)
Enter the IP address of the device the echo reply pack-
ets will be transmitted to.
NOTE: The E1/Datacom Tester only receives echo
messages if the source address of the incoming echo
message matches the destination address configured
on the E1/Datacom Tester.
Inverse ARP
(Ping loads only)
Select one of the following:
– On. If you want the HST to use Inverse ARP to
determine the IP address of the equipment at the
other end of the Frame Relay link, select On.
– Off. If you specified a destination address for the
device you are pinging, select Off. Off is the default.
