MainMenu Exit

PVC Tests menu selections are suppressed when no PVCs have been configured on the interface. Check that both ends of the cables are properly seated and secured.

Tests can be commanded from the OpenLane 5.x management solution using its Diagnostic Troubleshooting graphical interface, as well as from the menu-driven user interface.

Test Timeout Feature

A Test Timeout feature is available to automatically terminate a test (as opposed to manually terminating a test) after it has been running a specified period of time.

It is recommended that this feature be used when the FrameSaver unit is remotely managed through an inband data stream (PVC). If a test is accidently commanded to execute on the interface providing management access, control is regained when the specified time period expires, automatically terminating the test.

To use this feature, enable the Test Timeout configuration option, and set a duration for the test to run in the Test Duration (min) configuration option (see Configuring General System Options in Chapter 3, Configuration).
