T-BERD®/MTS-5800 Network Tester
Ethernet RFC 2544 Layer 3 Traffic
This document outlines how to configure and run an RFC 2544 Layer 3 Traffic Test for Metro Ethernet
Service Activation. A second T-BERD/MTS 5800 or compatible loopback device should be used at the
far-end of the line under test for traffic loopback.
Equipment Requirements:
•T-BERD/MTS-5800 equipped with the
following:
oBERT software release V27.0 or greater
oEthernet test options:
▪C510M1GE for 1 Gigabit or less
▪C510GELAN for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
▪C525GELAN for 25 Gigabit Ethernet
▪C540GELAN for 40 Gigabit Ethernet
▪C5100GELAN for 100 Gigabit
Ethernet
oSFP, QSFP, or CFP4 optical transceiver
to match the line under test
•Patch Cords to match the T-BERD/MTS
optics and the line under test
•Fiber optic inspection microscope (VIAVI
P5000i or FiberChek Probe)
Fiber Optic Cleaning supplies
Figure 1: Equipment Requirements
The following information is required to complete the test:
•Physical Interface (10/100/1000BASE-T, 1000BASE-LX, 10GBASE-LR, 100GBASE-LR4, etc.)
•Auto Negotiation settings of the port under test
•VLAN ID, if VLAN tagging is used
•IP Address Parameters (DHCP or Static, Source IP, Default Gateway, Subnet Mask, and
Destination IP)
Fiber Inspection Guidelines:
•All fiber end-faces must be clean and pass
an inspection test prior to connection.
•Use the VIAVI P5000i, FiberChek Probe, or
Sidewinder microscope to inspect both sides
of every connection being used (SFP Port,
bulkhead connectors, patch cords, etc.)

Connect to Fiber Under Test (FUT):
1. For copper 10/100/1000BASE-T interface
testing with the T-BERD/MTS 5800v2,
connect the Port 1 10/100/1000 RJ-45 jack
to the port under test using CAT 5E or
better cable.
2. For copper 10/100/1000BASE-T interface
testing with the T-BERD/MTS 5800-100G,
insert a copper SFP into the Port 1
SFP+/SFP28 slot and connect to the port
under test using CAT 5E or better cable.

3. For optical interfaces:
•Insert SFP, QSFP, or CFP4 compatible
with your physical interface into the
Port 1 slot on the top of the test set.
•Inspect and, if necessary, clean all
fibers and bulkheads, as described on
page 1.
•Connect the SFP, QSFP, or CFP4 to the
port under test using a Single Mode or
Multimode jumper cable compatible
with the interface under test.

Launch Test:
1. Press the Power button to turn on the test set and view the startup screen.
2. Using the Select Test menu, Quick Launch menu, or Job Manager, launch an Ethernet, RFC 2544, L3
Traffic, Terminate test on port 1 for the desired physical interface. For example:
Ethernet►10/100/1000►RFC 2544►L3 Traffic ►P1 Terminate.

Configure Test:
1. Tap the button to display the
L2 Network Settings screen. If you are
testing a VLAN, set Encapsulation to VLAN
and enter your VLAN ID.
Figure 7: L2 Network Settings –Local
2. Tap the button to display the
RFC 2544 Test: L3 Networks Settings -
Local screen.
3. Enter IP Parameters (Source IP Type,
Source IP, Default Gateway, Subnet
Mask, and Destination IP). The T-
BERD/MTS will resolve the destination IP
address using the Address Resolution
Protocol (ARP). Once resolved, the
button becomes available and
you can use it to verify connectivity to the
far-end loopback device.

4. Tap the button twice to
display the RFC 2544 Test: Select Tests
screen.
5. Select the Throughput, Latency, Frame
Loss, Packet Jitter, and Burst Test Tests.

6. Tap the button to display the
RFC 2544 Test: Utilization screen. Set Max
Bandwidth to the Committed Information
Rate (CIR).

7. Tap the button to display the
RFC 2544 Test: Frame Lengths screen.
Select the 1st, 4th, and 8th Frame Lengths.
If the MTU is greater than 1518 (1522 with
VLAN), also enter and select the frame length
of the MTU. Deselect (uncheck) all other
frame sizes.

8. Tap the button 3 times to
display the RFC 2544 Test: Burst Test screen.
Set CBS (kB) to the Committed Burst Size.

9. Tap the button twice to display
the Test Ctls: Test Thresholds screen. Check
all boxes for which a Pass/Fail Threshold is
known. Enter the Threshold for each
selection.
