mscLpImaTestType

Module: Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ImaMIB

OID (symbolic): Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ImaMIB::mscLpImaTestType

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.12.22.2.11.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This attribute is the type of test to be run. The available test types include the following: card test sets up an internal loop on the board and runs a bit error rate test. manual test assumes the line is looped back externally and a bit error rate test is performed. localLoop test loops back the local modem and performs a bit error rate test. remoteLoop test loops back the remote modem (or CSU) and performs a bit error rate test. externalLoop test loops back the line to the far end. payloadLoop test only loops back the payload data received from the incoming line. remoteLoopThisTrib loops this particular tributary back at the far end, using services provided by the parent. v54RemoteLoop initiates a V.54 Remote Loopback test. pn127RemoteLoop initiates a PN127 Remote Loopback test. Note that not all test types are not supported by all function processors.

What is mscLpImaTestType?

This selects which kind of test to run on the IMA group: card (internal loopback with BER test), manual (assumes external loopback), localLoop/remoteLoop/externalLoop/payloadLoop (loop back at different points), remoteLoopThisTrib (loops just this tributary back at the far end), or the V.54/PN127 remote loopback variants; not every function processor supports every type. An admin picks the type matching where in the circuit they want to isolate a fault, for example remoteLoop to test the link all the way to the remote modem/CSU.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.12.22.2.11.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ImaMIB::mscLpImaTestType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.12.22.2.11.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Nortel-MsCarrier-MscPassport-ImaMIB::mscLpImaTestType.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.562.36.2.1.12.22.2.11.1.2.1 i <value>
