Critical Recovery Tests
TestTxPathMonitoring
The TestTxPathMonitoring test sends index-directed packets periodically to each port on the Supervisor
Engine 720 and WS-X67xx series modules to verify ASIC synchronization and correct any related
problems. The test runs every two seconds.
TestSynchedFabChannel
The TestSynchedFabChannel test periodically checks the fabric synchronization status for both the
module and the fabric. This test is available only for fabric-enabled modules. This test is not a
packet-switching test so it does not involve the data path. This test sends an SCP control message to the
module and fabric to query the synchronization status.
