What type of loopback do you wish to perform?

Enter the size of the test pattern <10>:
The test pattern size is the number of bytes which will be used in the loopback
test packet. The size can range from 1 to 1500.
For loopback types [3] and [4], the following also appears:
Enter the number of loops <1>:
Entering a number larger than 1 will result in being prompted for that number
of MAC addresses through which the loopback will be performed. The first MAC
address entered will be the first destination of the loop test packet. The test
packet will then be sent to the next MAC address and so on, until all MAC
address have been utilized. The test packet is then sent back to the originating
MAC address.

When you choose this option, the following appears:
Enter the MAC address <xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx>:
