Figure 6-20. Loopback with Multiplexer Units
Running the Local Loopback The local loopback (LLB) checks the performance of the local ASMi-52 modem,
the local DTE and the connection between them (see Figure 6-21). The LLB can be
performed separately on the local and remote modems.
ASMi-52 allows you to set the loopback timeout causing the LLB to deactivate
automatically after the required period of time.
Timeout set to 0 (zero) is forever. Avoid setting timeout to 0 as the local control is
lost during LLB.
