the specified DSL port. An Operational, Administration and Maintenance Function
5 test is used to test the connection between two DSL devices. First, the DSL
devices establish a virtual circuit. Then the local device sends an ATM F5 cell to
be returned by the remote DSL device (both DSL devices must support ATM F5 in
order to use this test). The results (“Passed” or “Failed”) display in the multi-line
text box.
LDM Test Select a port number from the Port drop-down list box and click Set LDM Port to
have the MSAP2000 AAMS perform line diagnostics on the specified port. The
ADSL port must be set to ADSL2 or ADSL2+ ADSL operational mode and have a
connection. It takes about one minute for the line diagnostics to finish. The screen
displays a message confirming upon which ADSL port line diagnostics will be
performed. Click Get LDM Data to display the line diagnostics results after using
the Set LDM Port button on an ADSL port. Use the line diagnostics results to
analyze problems with the physical ADSL line.

Note: Wait at least one minute after using Set LDM Port

before using Get LDM Data.
