Monitor Pattern
This test monitors packets filled with a hexadecimal 55 test pattern and sequence
number over the selected interface and DLCI to another FrameSaver device.
To monitor a pattern test on a link:

Monitor Pattern
The current number of sequence and data errors are shown under the Result
column when the
FrameSaver unit is in sync. An
Out of Sync
message
appears when 5 frames out of 25 are missing or out of sequence.
These error counts are updated every second. If the maximum count is reached,
99999+
appears in these fields.
Connectivity
The Connectivity test is only available for multiplexed DLCIs.
Connectivity is a proprietary method that determines whether the
FrameSaver
device node at the other end of the frame relay PVC is active. This test stops
automatically and can only be executed for multiplexed PVCs.
Main Menu

Connectivity
Selecting Connectivity sends a frame to the
FrameSaver device at the other end
of the PVC. A
RndTrip Time(ms)
message appears in the Result column
when a response is received within 5 seconds, indicating that the FrameSaver
device at the remote end is alive (operational and connected), and the round trip
(RT) time is shown in milliseconds (ms), with a resolution of 1 ms. If a response is
not received within 5 seconds,
No Response
appears in the Result column.
