Diagnostic
26.1
Overview
You can use different diagnostic methods to test a connection and see the detailed
information. These read-only screens display information to help you identify
problems with the ZyXEL Device.
26.1.1
What You Can Do in this Chapter
•
Use the
Ping
screen to ping an IP address and see the ping statistics (
Section
26.2 on page 287
).
•
Use the
DSL Line
screen
to check or reset your DSL connection (
Section 26.3
on page 288
).
26.2
The Ping Screen
Use this screen to ping an IP address. Click
Maintenance > Diagnostic

ATM
Status
Click this button to view your DSL connection’s Asynchronous Transfer Mode
(ATM) statistics. ATM is a networking technology that provides high-speed
data transfer. ATM uses fixed-size packets of information called cells. With
ATM, a high QoS (Quality of Service) can be guaranteed.
The (Segmentation and Reassembly) SAR driver translates packets into ATM
cells. It also receives ATM cells and reassembles them into packets.
These counters are set back to zero whenever the device starts up.
inPkts
is the number of good ATM cells that have been received.
inDiscards
is the number of received ATM cells that were rejected.
outPkts
is the number of ATM cells that have been sent.
outDiscards
is the number of ATM cells sent that were rejected.
ATM
Loopback
Test
Click this button to start the ATM loopback test. Make sure you have
configured at least one PVC with proper VPIs/VCIs before you begin this test.
The ZyXEL Device sends an OAM F5 packet to the DSLAM/ATM switch and
then returns it (loops it back) to the ZyXEL Device. The ATM loopback test is
useful for troubleshooting problems with the DSLAM and ATM network.

DSL Line
Status
Click this button to view statistics about the DSL connections.
1.
noise margin downstream
is the signal to noise ratio for the
downstream part of the connection (coming into the ZyXEL Device from
the ISP). It is measured in decibels. The higher the number the more
signal and less noise there is.
2.
output power upstream
is the amount of power (in decibels) that the
ZyXEL Device is using to transmit to the ISP.
3.
attenuation downstream
is the reduction in amplitude (in decibels) of
the DSL signal coming into the ZyXEL Device from the ISP.
Discrete Multi-Tone (DMT) modulation divides up a line’s bandwidth into sub-
carriers (sub-channels) of 4.3125 KHz each called tones. The rest of the
display is the line’s bit allocation. This is displayed as the number (in
hexadecimal format) of bits transmitted for each tone. This can be used to
determine the quality of the connection, whether a given sub-carrier loop has
sufficient margins to support certain ADSL transmission rates, and possibly
to determine whether particular specific types of interference or line
attenuation exist. Refer to the ITU-T G.992.1 recommendation for more
information on DMT.
The better (or shorter) the line, the higher the number of bits transmitted for
a DMT tone. The maximum number of bits that can be transmitted per DMT
tone is 15. There will be some tones without any bits as there has to be
space between the upstream and downstream channels.
Reset
ADSL Line
Click this button to reinitialize the ADSL line. The large text box above then
displays the progress and results of this operation, for example:
"Start to reset ADSL
Loading ADSL modem F/W...
Reset ADSL Line Successfully!"
