Assistance Type is an optional argument that specifies the degree of loopback assistance required. Valid Assistant Type values are none, transmit, receive, and full. This argument is for LAN circuits only. If Assistance Type is any value other than none (the default), then an assistant is required. An assistant can be specified either by including an Assistant Address or Assistant System argument in the command line, but not both. If neither is provided, then an assistant is located by first sending a request to the loopback assistant multicast address. loop [node node-id] mop circuit circuit-name - address lan-address, - assistant address lan-address, - assistance type help-type [,optional arguments...] Address information specifying the node to receive the loop is required for the loop mop circuit command. If the Address argument is not specified in the command, then the Client argument must be specified so the address information can be obtained from the MOP Client database. loop [node node-id] mop circuit circuit-name - client client-name, - assistant system client-name, - assistance type help-type [,optional arguments...] Examples: loop mop circuit fddi-1 - address 08-00-2b-00-78-E4, - assistant address aa-00-04-00-33-44, - assistance type full loop mop circuit csmacd-1 - client foofoo, - !
