Monitoring Test Patterns
Use the Monitor command to monitor a QRSS test
pattern over all the channels on the network interface, or
to monitor QRSS or 511 test patterns on the channels
allocated to an individual port.
This command provides the number of errors detected
in the test pattern (5 digits, maximum 99999).
