NOTE: BERT is supported on the PDH interfaces of the Channelized
SONET/SDH OC3/STM1 (Multi-Rate) MIC with SFP and the DS3/E3 MIC.
The following BERT algorithms are supported:
all-ones-repeating Repeating one bits
all-zeros-repeating Repeating zero bits
alternating-double-ones-zeros Alternating pairs of ones and zeros
alternating-ones-zeros Alternating ones and zeros
repeating-1-in-4 1 bit in 4 is set
repeating-1-in-8 1 bit in 8 is set
repeating-3-in-24 3 bits in 24 are set
pseudo-2e9-o153 Pattern is 2^9 - 1 (per O.153 standard)
pseudo-2e11-o152 Pattern is 2^11 - 1 (per O.152 standard)
pseudo-2e15-o151 Pattern is 2^15 - 1 (per O.151 standard)
pseudo-2e20-o151 Pattern is 2^20 - 1 (per O.151 standard)
pseudo-2e20-o153 Pattern is 2^20 - 1 (per O.153 standard)
pseudo-2e23-o151 Pattern is 2^23 (per O.151 standard)
Table 5 on page 90 shows the BERT capabilities for various interface types.
