Command Reference

12.57 Test Loop
Tests the network connections to MOP hosts. A simple loopback service verifies that the remote node is
receiving the ETS’s transmissions. An Assistant or “helper” node can be specified to forward one or both
of the transmissions (outbound or incoming).
Applies To
EPS4, ETS4P, ETS8, ETS8P, ETS16, ETS16P
Restrictions
You must be the privileged user to use this command.
Parameters
address
Specify either a text host name or an Ethernet address. Ethernet addresses are
specified in xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx (hexadecimal) format, where each xx represents
one of the 6 bytes of the node’s hardware address. If text names are used, only
LAT service names can be resolved to hardware addresses.

12.58 Test Port
Tests a port’s connection by sending a continuous stream of ASCII alphabetic characters from the port for
a certain number of lines. If no width or count is specified, the ETS will produce 70-character lines until a
key is pressed to stop the test.
Applies To
EPS4, ETS4P, ETS8, ETS8P, ETS16, ETS16P
Restrictions
You must be the privileged user to test a port other than your own. Virtual and
multisession-enabled ports can only be tested by the current user on that port.
