Configuring the WAN Physical Link
Monitoring WAN Physical Links
T1, E1, and T3 devices have a built-in facility designed for troubleshooting the physical
link, called loopback. The link can also be monitored using show commands to display
the current configuration of the link, any alarms on the link, link statistics, and link
errors.
Loopback
The WAN device can be set up to loopback, that is, return a transmitted signal back to
the sender so it can be compared with the original. There are several different types of
loopback available to test different parts of the device and the line, as specified in the
T1, E1, and T3 standards.
Figure 2-1: Normal operation of WAN link
During normal operation of a link, as the local data stream enters the framer, the
appropriate framing bits are inserted into the data, and the framed signal is transmitted
