In the Metaswitch explorer interface.. drill down in the CFS until you get to 
"Test Call Services".

I see test line 100 and 102 which is what I think you want.

The test numbers are a function of the switch. The endpoints need no 
configuration or support. To the endpoints, the test numbers are simply a 
dialable phone number like any other.

If Metaswitch doesn't have configurable options for milliwatt and silent 
termination, an Asterisk or similar box can easily do so. This is very 
lightweight and can run on a Raspberry Pi if needed.

The milliwatt is used to test for line loss and level and silent termination 
for hybrid balance.

Essentially these are dialable numbers that in the first case answer with a 
1004 Hz tone sent at a level of one milliwatt and in the second answer with 
silence matching the line impedance with return loss as high as possible.
