C. Configuration Options

Table C-6. General Configuration Options (2 of 2)

Clock Rate: 1544

Next 2048 1544 8 Prev

External Clock Rate. Specifies the clock rate when the master clock source is configured for external clock (Ext). This configuration option does not appear when the clock source is not an external clock.

2048 – Sets the input rate of the external clock to 2,048 kHz.

1544 – Sets the input rate of the external clock to 1,544 kHz.

8 – Sets the input rate of the external clock to 8 kHz.

NOTES:

This configuration option is only available on 2-port and 4-port DSU/CSUs.

External clock rate 2,048 kHz does not imply E1 compatibility.

Tst Timeout: Enab

Next Enab Disab Prev

Test Timeout. Specifies whether user-initiated loopback and pattern tests have durations that are specified by the Tst Duration configuration option.

Enab – Loopback and pattern tests initiated on the DSU/CSU have specified durations.

Disab – Disables test timeout. The tests are terminated manually.

NOTE: For DSU/CSUs that are remotely managed through an inband data stream such as EDL or FDL, the recommended setting is Enab. If tests are inadvertently left in the active state, the Enab setting will allow the test to timeout (terminate) after a specified time.

Tst Duration: 10

Next Up Down Save Prev

Test Duration. Specifies the duration (1 to 120 minutes) of user-initiated loopback and pattern tests. (The Tst Timeout configuration option must be set to Enab.) Use the left or right arrow key to position the cursor on the digit you want to change. Use the Function keys (Up or Down) to increment or decrement the digit.

Up – Increments the test duration.

Down – Decrements the test duration.

Save – Stores the test duration.
