Digital Loopback (DL)
Digital Loopback mode tests the local DSU/CSU and the Telco circuit. The
DSU/CSU enters Digital Loopback mode when it receives a CCITT V.54 loop-up
code, or when configured.
In Digital Loopback mode, the DSU/CSU takes transmit data and converts it to
receive data. The DSU/CSU retimes and reshapes the received data, then transmits
the data back to the network. The remote facility transmits back to the router all
data it receives from the router. Figure 4-1
illustrates the operation of a Digital
Loopback test.

Remote Digital Loopback (RL)
Remote Digital Loopback (CCITT V.54 Loopback) tests the local DSU/CSU, the
Telco circuit, and the remote DSU/CSU. The local DSU/CSU sends a V.54
loop-up code to the remote DSU/CSU to initiate a digital loop, and then sends a
test pattern through the loop to check for returned data errors.When the remote
DSU/CSU receives the V.54 loop-up code, it provides the loopback path shown in
Figure 4-2
