CLI Command List
8-42 July 2004 Wide Bank 28 DS3 - Release 2.4
DS3 SEND
Name: DS3 Send Code
Purpose: Configure DS3 interface to send a code toward the network. This command permits a
variety of bit pattern codes to be sent toward the low-speed or network side. Each low-
speed channel includes a pseudo-random bit sequence (PRBS) code generator and
detector (see chapter 7).
Note: Because the codes are unframed, external test equipment may indicate a loss of
framing.
Note: When ds3 protect is turned on, this command will transmit codes over both
primary and secondary DS3s.
Security: rw and above
Syntax: ds3 send {off|ais|idle|loopup|loopdown|prbs}
Example: ds3 send idle
DS3 THRESHOLD
Name: DS3 Threshold
Purpose: Specify the bit error rate that, when exceeded, triggers a protection switch to the
standby DS3 Controller card. The bit error rate (BER) is specified as a power of 10, as
in 10
-n
where n=4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.
Security: rw and above
Syntax: ds3 threshold {4|5|6|7|8}

off Send no code or stop sending code
ais Send alarm indication signal (AIS) toward the DS3 network
idle Send IDLE code to far-end DS3
loopup Send the code to loop up the far end DS3 (C-bit framing only)
loopdown Send the code to loop down the far end DS3 (C-bit framing only)
prbs Send unframed PRBS code toward the DS3 network
