Super Frame configured, the remote alarm condition is signalled out
of band in the facility data link.
You can see if the FT1/T1 CSU/DSU is receiving a remote alarm (yel-
low alarm) by issuing the show service-module command.
To disable remote alarms, type this in in ter face configuration mode:
no service-module t1 remote-alarm-enable
Enable Loopcodes that Initiate Remote Loopbacks
To configure the remote loopback code used to transmit or accept CSU
loopback requests, and type this in interface configuration mode:
service-module t1 remote-loopback full
To configure the loopback code used by the local CSU/DSU to gener-
ate or detect payload-loopback commands, type this in interface
configuration mode:
service-module t1 remote-loopback payload
[alternate | v54]
Note: By entering the service-module t1 remote-
loopback command without specifying any keywords,
you enable the standard-loopup codes, which use a 1-in-5
pattern for loopup and a 1-in-3 pattern for loopdown.
You can simultaneously configure the full and payload loopback
points. However, only one loopback payload code can be configured
at a time. For example, if you configure the service-module t1
remote-loopback payload alternate command, a pay-
load v.54 request, which is the industry standard and default, cannot b
transmitted or accepted. Full and payload loopbacks with standard-
loopup codes are enabled by default.
The no form of this command disables loopback requests. For exam-
ple, the no service-module t1 remote-loopback full
command ignores all full-bandwidth loopback transmissions and re-
quests. Configuring the no form of the command may not prevent telco
line providers from looping your router in esf mode, b ecause fractional
T1/T1 telcos use facilities data-link messages to initiate loopbacks.
If you enable the service-module t1 remote-loopback
command, the loopback remote commands on the FT1/T1 CSU/
DSU module will not be successful.
