Test Timeout

Possible Settings: Enable, Disable

Default Setting: Enable

Determines whether or not loopback and pattern tests have a duration after which they are terminated automatically. This setting does not effect DTE-commanded tests or the LMI Packet Capture Utility feature.

Enable ± All Loopback and Pattern tests have a timeout. This setting is recommended when the FrameSaver unit is managed remotely through an in-band data stream. If the FrameSaver unit is accidently commanded to execute a disruptive test on the interface providing the management access, control can be regained after the timeout expires, terminating the test.

Disable ± Loopback and pattern tests must be manually terminated.

Test Duration (min)

Possible Settings: 1 ± 120

Default Setting: 10

Specifies the maximum duration of user-initiated tests.

Display Conditions ± This option only appears when Test Timeout is set to Enable.

1 ± 120 ± Sets the Test Timeout period in minutes (inclusive).
