O-P-Q-R Commands > path ds1|e1 bert

path ds1|e1 bert

Description: 

Enables bit error rate tests using the specified pattern at the DS1/E1 over SONET/SDH VT layer on channelized SONET and SDH interfaces. The no version stops the test that is running.

Syntax: 

path pathChannel { ds1 | e1 } tributaryIdentifier bert
pattern pattern interval time [ unframed ]

no path pathChannel { ds1 | e1 } tributaryIdentifier bert

• pathChannel—Number in the range 1-2147483648 that identifies the path
• tributaryIdentifier—Identifier for the tributary. See description for the path ds1|e1 command.
• pattern—One of the following test patterns:

• 2^11—Pseudorandom test pattern, 2,047 bits in length
• 2^15—Pseudorandom test pattern, 32,767 bits in length
• 2^20-O153—Pseudorandom test pattern, 1,048,575 bits in length

• time—Duration of the test in the range 1-1440 minutes
• unframed—Test bit pattern occupies all bits on the link, overwriting the framing bits. If you do not specify this keyword, the test bit pattern occupies only T1/E1 payload bits.
