bert-period
Syntax
bert-period seconds;
Hierarchy Level
[edit interfaces ce1-fpc/pic/port], [edit interfaces ct1-fpc/pic/port], [edit interfaces interface-name ds0-options], [edit interfaces interface-name e1-options], [edit interfaces interface-name e3-options], [edit interfaces interface-name t1-options], [edit interfaces interface-name t3-options]
Description
Configure the duration of a BERT test. Applies to E1, E3, T1, and T3 interfaces, and to E1, E3, T1, and T3 partitions on the channelized interfaces (CE1, CT1, DS3, OC3, OC12, OC48, STM1, STM4, and STM16).
E1 and T1 IQ, IQE, and standard interfaces support an extended BERT period range, up to 86,400 seconds (24 hours).
When configuring CE1 or CT1 interfaces on 10-port Channelized
E1/T1 IQE PICs, the bert-period statement must be included
at the [edit interfaces ce1-fpc/pic/port] or [edit interfaces
ct1-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level as appropriate.
Options
seconds—Test
duration. Range and default values vary by interface type.
Range:
PIC-dependent—Normal BERT period: either 1 through 239 seconds or 1 through 240 seconds
PIC-dependent—Extended BERT period: from 1 through 86,400 seconds
Default:
Normal BERT period: 10 seconds
Extended BERT period (on supported E1 interfaces): 10 seconds
Extended BERT period (on supported T1 interfaces): 240 seconds
Required Privilege Level
interface—To view this statement in the configuration.
interface-control—To add this statement to the configuration.
