Starts a loop test between the loopback applications on the specified source and destination nodes. The node keyword specifies the node from which the loop messages are sent. If you omit this keyword, the test is performed from the node on which you issue the loop command. The name or address argument specifies the node whose loop mirror is used to reflect the messages back to the originator. Specify either the name or address (but not both). address tower-set count integer loop [node node-id] loopback application format hex-string length integer name full-name
1 – Characteristics
o address tower-set Number of the destination for loopback messages, in the form of a protocol tower. Specify either this argument or the name argument. o count integer Default: 1 Value: 0-4294967295 Number of loop messages to be sent to the loop mirror. The test is complete when this number of loop messages has been reflected back by the loop mirror. o format hex-string Default: 55 Value: 00-FF Content of the data field of a loop message. Enter a pair of hexadecimal digits. Each octet in the data field of a loop message has this value. o length integer Default: 40 Value: 0-65534 Length, in octets, of the data field in each loop message. o name full-name DNS name of the node to which loopback messages are sent. Specify either this argument or the address argument, but not both.
