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).

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.
