fporttest Operands 5. Compare ECHO data transmitted is equal to the ECHO data received. 6. Repeat step 3 through step 5 for all ports present until: a. The number of frames requested is reached, b. All ports are marked bad. You can specify a payload pattern to be used when executing this test. If the pattern is not user specified, then at every 30 pass, a different data type from a palette of seven is used to generate different data pattern to create the frame. The data pattern will be generated based on each data type. Some data types may generate different data pattern on every pass, and other data type may not change the data pattern in every pass. These seven data types will be repeated every 210 pass. The data palette is as follows: 1) CSPAT: 0x7e, 0x7e, 0x7e, 0x7e,... 2) BYTE_LFSR: 0x69, 0x01, 0x02, 0x05,... 3) CHALF_SQ: 0x4a, 0x4a, 0x4a, 0x4a,... 4) QUAD_NOT: 0x00, 0xff, 0x00, 0xff,... 5) CQTR_SQ: 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78,... 6) CRPAT: 0xbc, 0xbc, 0x23, 0x47,... 7) RANDOM: 0x25, 0x7f, 0x6e, 0x9a,... This command has the following operands: -nframes count -ports itemlist -seed payload_pattern -width pattern_width -size pattern_size Specify the number of times (or number of frames per port) to execute this test. If omitted, the default value used is 10. This operand is optional. Specify the ports to run to test on. If omitted, the test will be executed on all online F_ports in the specified slot. This operand is optional. Specify the pattern of the test packets payload. When payload_pattern is set to 0, all seven different data types will be used. This operand is optional. Specify the width of the pattern which user specified. When payload_pattern is set to 0x00, pattern_width will be ignored. Valid values are: 1 = byte 2 = word 4 = quad This operand is optional. Specify the number of words of the test packets payload. If omitted, the default value is 512. This operand is optional. Fabric OS Version 3.1.x/4.1.x Reference Guide 305
