LINKED |
UNLINKED |
ARMED
Configures Test PHY to advertise selected pair function
through either an immediate re-link (default) or through a
re-link to occur later. Note: Use command pva_relink to
initiate the link change if “arm” is specified. Use
pva_link_mon to query link status. Returns LINKED if re-
link is successful, returns UNLINKED if re-link fails, and
returns ARMED if ‘arm’ specified. Accepts broadcast port=
99,99 only in combination with arm.
auto Configure connections to whatever the link partners
automatically decide
mdi Force Test PHY to “MDI” pair functions
mdi-x Force Test PHY to “MDI-X” pair functions
arm Configure pair functions but suppress the auto-
negotiation to the configuration until a later re-link
operation. Enables use with port ‘99,99’.
auto | master | slave <arm>
LINKED_<mode>

LINKED_<speed>
| UNLINKED
| ARMED
Configures Test PHY to allow automatic determination of
1000BaseT Master/Slave or forces Test PHY to either
timing Master or Slave mode. Note: Use command
pva_relink to initiate the link change if “arm” is specified.
Use pva_link_mon to query link status. Returns
LINKED_<gig_mode> if re-link at 1000BaseT is
successful, LINKED_<speed> if re-link is to 100BaseT or
10BaseT, or returns UNLINKED if re-link fails, and returns
ARMED if ‘arm’ specified. Accepts broadcast port= 99,99
only in combination with arm argument.
auto Configure Master / Slave relationship during link up
master Force local Test PHY to be Master
slave Force local Test PHY to be Slave
arm Configure 1000BaseT timing mode but suppress the
link up to effect this until a later re-link operation.
Enables use with port ‘99,99’.

TEST_1 |

TEST_3 |
TEST_4
Configures Test PHY to immediately turn on or off a gigabit
test signal. Accepts broadcast port= 99,99.
off Remove gigabit test signal and re-link using any current
link configuration (wake-up default)
1 or levels Turn on gigabit Test Signal #1 used for pulse
level and droop analysis
2 or jitter Turn on gigabit Test Signal #2 used for MASTER
mode jitter analysis
3 Turn on gigabit Test Signal #3 used for SLAVE mode
jitter analysis
4 or random Turn on Test Signal #4 used for distortion
analysis
idle Turn on 100BaseT IDLE transmission signal. Signal
will appear on Pair 2 if in MDI or Pair 3 if in MDI-X.
Query returns present link state of current or specified test
port. A disconnected port will report DOWN.
10 | 100 | 1000 |
UNDETERMINED
Query returns present link rate of current or specified test
port. An unlinked port will report UNDETERMINED.
Query returns present configured gigabit Ethernet timing
mode of current or specified test port. Value is only
meaningful when linked 1000BaseT. FAULT indicates
problem with resolving gigabit timing mode.
