SYSTEM UTILITY > TRACEROUTE > MAXIMUM HOPS

Specifies the maximum number of router exchanges allowed when traveling to the final destination

(specified using the

TRACE TARGET field) Range is 1 to 30. Default is 30.

SYSTEM UTILITY > TRACEROUTE > TIMEOUT (IN SECS)

Specifies the maximum delay (in milliseconds) given to a host (along a path to the final destination) to

respond to the probe datagram sent before considering the packet a failure.

SYSTEM UTILITY > TRACEROUTE > RETRIES

Specifies the number of times the probe datagram is sent to each host (along the path to the final

destination).

SYSTEM UTILITY > TRACEROUTE > BEGIN TRACEROUTE

Activates the traceroute process by sending a probe datagram with a Time To Live (TTL) value of 1.

SYSTEM UTILITY > RESET UNIT

Selecting this activator will power reset the unit.

SYSTEM UTILITY > TERMINAL MODE

Selecting the terminal mode gives the user a command-line prompt to perform utilities such as pings,

traceroutes, resets, firmware updates, configuration, and more.

TERMINAL MODE can also be accessed by

using the shortcut keys <

CNTRL+T> from other menu screens. From this command-line prompt, you can:

• Perform a reset with the command "reset"

• Perform a complete factory restore with the command "factory_reset"

• Configure the unit. The unit has the ability to download a text file which contains the configuration of

the entire unit. This configuration may then be altered in a text editor, and then uploaded to a unit. (See

DLP-13, Saving and Loading Text Configuration using Terminal Command Line, for further

assistance.)

• Debug and troubleshoot. This function would be carried out with the assistance of ADTRAN Technical

Support.

• Start and stop the fail-safe timer for the auto-config feature.

• Perform a firmware upgrade via TFTP.

• Use the save command to write the entire configuration to flash.

• Display the unit’s MAC address with the command mac.

• Perform a ping or extended ping. Syntax is:

ping hostname/address [repeat xx] [size xx] [timeout xx] [source xx] [noNat]

Options:

repeat <repeat count> Number of pings to send (default 5)

size (datagram size) Range is 40-1500
