Watson 5 Ethernet
Operating Manual
W5-Ethernet-Manual.doc
Version 2.0-01
3-24 Revision: 2006-04-27
The evaluation of the G.826 error performance parameters is based on CRC (Cyclic Redundancy
Check) error detection. The estimation of a bit-error rate is not within the scope of the G.826 calcu-
lations.
On the DSL side, six CRC6 check bits are generated per DSL frame for each channel and direction.
The software counts block errors and evaluates the error performance according to ITU-T G.826
using these CRC6 bits.
G.826 statistics are available with the G826 Monitor command.
3.7 Test loops
Test loops can be activated via the Monitor or SNMP. Loop 1 will initiate a loopback on a local
Ethernet interface, Loop 2 will initiate a loopback on a remote DSL interface. Only one test loop can
be active at a given time.
Activation of a test loop will deactivate any previous loop. A system reset will deactivate any test
loop. A non-urgent alarm is raised while any loop is active.

Notes: ! The looped-back Ethernet packets egress the modems from the same port they were sent to
and have the same source and destination addresses they were sent with. While Ethernet
testing equipment can handle this situation it might be very confusing for "normal" Ethernet
ports or Ethernet switches.
! The Watson 5 Ethernet tabletop modems operated as DSL slave can only control LOOP1.
3.8 Password protection
The Watson 5 Ethernet modems feature password protection to management functions to prevent
unauthorized access e.g. on a modem that is installed at a customer site but is owned and man-
aged by the service provider.
Password protection is global i.e. once the correct password is entered access to all commands is
granted.
By default password protection is disabled. To enable it use the SET PASSWORD command to
define a password and then use the LOGOFF command to lock access to the Monitor. Now Moni-
