Figure 2-28: IP Error Insertion Menu

The Stream Index is fixed at a value of 1.

The Current Error Insertion section is only available if there is an Error Type selected under the Error Selection area.

Error Selection

The Error Type is selected by using the pull down menu. The Error Types available include:

None

HDLC FCS Error

IP Payload Error

IP Header Checksum Error

Once the error type is selected, the Error Rate must be selected. Use the up/down cursors or just type in the rate. For the maximum rate, click the Max Rate button.

The default setting for error type is None so before the Current Error Insertion menu is available, an error type must be selected and applied.

NOTE: The Apply Changes button must be clicked before the changes become active.
