Network Interface Status
The network interface status fields are read-only:
H Line Rate (Kbps). If the DSU is connected to an operating line and the Line
Rate (Kbps) shows Autobaud and does not change to a line rate within about
25 seconds, Line Rate (Kbps) may have to be reconfigured manually. Refer
to System Options, Table A-1.
H Loop Loss (dB). The loop loss is the loss of signal strength of the receive line
signal from the local loop.
