Determining Operating Status
This chapter describes the SmartEdge
®
400 chassis and card LEDs used to determine the status of the
system. It also describes how to troubleshoot hardware problems.
These topics include:
• Powering On the System
• Determining Hardware Status
• Managing Hardware with CLI Commands
• Troubleshooting Hardware Problems
• Obtaining Assistance
For more information about system fault management and troubleshooting alarm and failure conditions,
see Appendix B, “Alarms and Probable Causes.”
In addition to the LEDs for the system, the LEDs for the following cards are defined:
• Controller Cards
• SONET and SDH Optical Cards
• ATM Cards
• PDH Cards
• Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Cards
After you have checked the operating status of the hardware, you are ready to perform the configuration
procedures described in the
Basic System Configuration Guide for the SmartEdge OS.
When the configuration procedures are complete, you might need to alter the console connection to provide
another type of console access, as described in the “Selecting the Type of Management Access” section in
Chapter 3, “Preparing for Installation.” See the “Connections for Management Access” section in
Chapter 4, “Installing the Hardware,” to alter the cable connections for normal operations.
Note In the following descriptions, the term, controller card, applies to the Cross-Connect Route
Processor (XCRP) or the XCRP Version 3 (XCRP3) Controller card, unless otherwise noted.
The term, second-generation ATM OC card, refers to a 4-port Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
OC-3c/STM-1c or Enhanced ATM OC-12c/STM-4c card.
