Transition Networks SISPM1040-3xxx-L Web User Guide Parameter descriptions: Common Parameters Profile Name : Each profile must have a name that uniquely identifies it, since it is this name that is used in the process of executing a test. The length must be from 1 to 32 characters with each ASCII character being in the range [33; 126] except for and \' characters. Description : This field allows for providing a textual description of the profile. Up to 128 characters can be entered with each ASCII character being in the range 32 - 126. Dual-ended : For future use. In this revision of the software, this checkbox must be unchecked, meaning that this switch expects all generated traffic to be looped at the remote end (single-ended). Reporting and assessing of PASS/FAIL is therefore done by this switch. Dual-ended measurement is not supported yet. DST is OAM-aware : When checked, this switch transmits Y.1731 DMM frames for delay measurements and Y.1731 1DM frames when unchecked. When Traffic Type is 'Y.1731 OAM', this switch transmits Y.1731 LBM frames as test traffic when DST is configured as OAM-aware, and Y.1731 TST frames when not configured as OAM-aware. Traffic Type : At the dropdown select 'Y.1731 OAM' or 'Simulated Customer'. When set to 'Y.1731 OAM', this switch transmits Y.1731 OAM PDUs as test traffic, and DST is OAM-aware determines the PDU type. Special rules capturing the Y.1731 traffic is installed on the fly, which means that the actual UNI Ingress ECE rules are not used with Y.1731 traffic as test traffic. When set to 'Simulated Customer', the software will generate a traffic-pattern that is supposed to hit the ECEs under test. The ECEs' counters are used to determine PASS/FAIL criteria. 'Simulated Customer' has the advantage that the tester can see directly from the report if ECEs are configured incorrectly, since the report will show per-ECE counters and fail if an ECE under test is not hit as expected by the traffic pattern. MEG Level : The MEG level (0-7) used in generated Y.1731 OAM frames (both LBM/TST and DMM/1DM). Frame Size : Selects the frame size of the test traffic. The frame size does not include possible Ctag(s) added to match the ECE. Standard frame size selections are 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 1280, and 1518 bytes per frame. Besides these standard frame sizes there are two custom selections (MTU and User-defined). MTU : The UNI's MTU will be used for the test traffic. Notice that if the EVC is tagged, the NNI port's MTU must be four bytes larger than the UNI port's. User-defined : When Frame Size is set to 'User-defined', this field will un-grey, allowing for a custom specification of a frame size of the test traffic. Valid range is 64 - 10236 bytes. Dwell Time : When a trial (a single step of a subtest) is executed, test traffic is transmitted for a certain period of time. When that period has elapsed, the Dwell Time defines how long to wait before reading hardware counters and status. The dwell time must be at least the worst-case roundtrip time, and therefore among others, depends on the physical distance between the near and far ends. The valid range is 100 - 10000 in steps of 100 milliseconds with a default of 500 milliseconds. 33763 Rev. G https://www.transition.com Page 418 of 496
