Packet Interface Test (#598)
This non-destructive test checks the packet bus interface circuitry on the VAL
circuit pack. Test failure indicates faulty circuit pack.
Congestion Query Test (#600)
This non-destructive test queries the number of used buffers to determine if the
VAL circuit pack is congested.
Normal call handling resumes when the VAL circuit pack has recovered from
congestion.
