Other Parameters:

 Process IOmetrix cNode Level1 agent frames received - is a testing service.

 The company Iometrix Inc has defined what is essentially a layer 2 ping. When enabled, the EUSM recognizes and processes frames with a DA of 00-30-79-FF-FF-FF. If other conditions (defined by  

 iometrix) are met, it returns the received frame to the originator with certain address adjustments. The only choice the user has is whether or not to allow the EUSM to respond as an Iometrix cNode Level 1 

 agent.
