Test Timeout
Possible Settings: Enable, Disable
Default Setting: Enable
Determines whether or not loopback and pattern tests have a duration after which they
are terminated automatically.
Enable – All Loopback and Pattern tests have a timeout. This setting is recommended
when the FrameSaver unit is managed remotely through an in-band data stream. If the
FrameSaver unit is accidently commanded to execute a disruptive test on the interface
providing the management access, control can be regained after the timeout expires,
terminating the test.
Disable – Loopback and pattern tests must be manually terminated.
Test Duration (min)
Possible Settings: 1 – 120
Default Setting: 10
Specifies the maximum duration of the tests.
Display Conditions – This option only appears when Test Timeout is set to Enable.
1 – 120 – Sets the Test Timeout period in minutes (inclusive).
Primary Clock Source
Possible Settings: Net1, DSX, Internal
Default Setting: Net1
Allows you to select the primary clock source for the unit. The source selected provides
all of the timing within the FrameSaver unit and the clocks for all of the external
interfaces. Failure of the clock specified by this configuration option results in automatic
fallback to the Secondary Clock Source configuration option setting.
NOTE: For the Primary and Secondary Clock Source options, only Internal can be
selected for both options. All other selections must have different settings
(e.g., if Primary Clock Source is set to Net1, Secondary Clock Source
cannot be set to Net1).
Net1 – The primary clock is derived from the Network1 T1 interface.
DSX – The primary clock is derived from the DSX-T1 interface. This setting only
appears if the DSX-1 interface is installed and enabled (see Configuring the DSX-1
Interface).
Internal – The primary clock is the internal clock.
