Missing pkt fill pattern

Specifies the data that the CTP device inserts into the circuit bit stream when an IP packet is dropped. The number of bits inserted is equal to the number of bits in the missed packet.

This data insertion method prevents a loss of bit count integrity to attached circuit devices and encryptors.

Enter two hexadecimal digits. You must enter a value other than ff. This field does not require the 0x characters.
