DETAILED STEPS
PurposeCommand or Action
Selects the E3 controller for the port you are configuring, where slot
/subslot identifies the SPA slot and subslot, and /port identifies the port.
Router(config)# controller e3
slot/subslot/port
Step 1
(Optional) For the clear-channel ATM, configure framing as g751, which
is the only framing that is supported.
Router(config-controller)# [no] framing g751
Example:
Step 2
(Optional) Specifies the length (in feet) of the cable attached to the port.
The valid values are 0 to 450 feet. The default value is 224 feet.
Router(config-controller)# cablelength feet
Step 3
(Optional) Runs a loopback test that is useful for troubleshooting
problems. The no form of the command stops the test. The default
command is no loopback.
Router(config-controller)# [no] loopback
{local | network {line | payload}
Example:
Step 4
• local—Loops the signal from the Tx path to the Rx path. Sends
an Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) to the network.
• network {line | payload}—Loops the signal from the Rx path to
the Tx path. The line parameter loops back the unframed signal
and the payload parameter loops back the framed signal.
(Optional) Configures bit error rate (BER) testing.Router(config-controller)# [no] bert pattern
[2^15 | 2^20 | 2^23 | 0s | 1s | alt-0-1]
interval [1-1440]
Step 5
Returns to the global configuration mode.Router(config-controller)# exit
