Traffic Manager XPP link monitoring
Traffic Manager (TM) XPP link status is checked during the line card boot up time. MP will attempt to recover TM XPP link errors by
executing resets and then keeping reset cards down that fail to recover after 3 resets.
Thus TM-XPP link is monitored at boot-up, and recovery action is performed. This check will be placed in periodic TM XPP link
monitoring to catch link issues at run time and perform appropriate recovery.
This feature is supported for the following line cards:
• 8x10GbE
• 20x10-GbE/1GBE (M) / FRU# 53-1003238-xx
• 20x10-GbE/1GbE (X2) / FRU# 53-1003275-xx
• 24x10GbE
• 4x40GbE
• 2x100GbE
