cable_diag ports
12-1
Description
This command is used to configure cable diagnostics on ports. For FE port, two pairs of cable will
be diagnosed. For GE port, four pairs of cable will be diagnosed.
The following test result can be displayed.
•
Open
- The cable in the error pair does not have a connection at the specified position.
•
Short
- The cable in the error pair has a short problem at the specified position.
•
Crosstalk
- The cable in the error pair has a crosstalk problem at the specified position.
•
Shutdown
- The remote partner is powered off.
•
Unknown
- The diagnosis does not obtain the cable status. Please try again.
•
OK
- The pair or cable has no error.
•
No cable
- The port does not have any cable connected to the remote partner.
When a port is in link-up status, the test will obtain the distance of the cable. Since the status is
link-up, the cable will not have the short or open problem. But the test may still detect the crosstalk
problem.
When a port is in link-down status, the link-down may be caused by many factors.
1. When the port has a normal cable connection, but the remote partner is powered off, the
cable diagnosis can still diagnose the health of the cable as if the remote partner is
powered on.
2. When the port does not have any cable connection, the result of the test will indicate no
cable.
3. The test will detect the type of error and the position where the error occurs.
When the link partner is Fast Ethernet ports:
•
Where the
link partner is powered on with no errors
and the
link is up
, this command
cannot detect the cable length
•
Where the
link partner is powered on with errors
, this command can detect whether the
error is open, short, or crosstalk. In this case this command can also detect the distance of
the error
•
Where the l
ink partner is powered down with no errors
and the
link is down
, this
command cannot detect the cable length
•
When the
link partner is powered down with errors
, this command can detect whether
the error is open, short, or crosstalk. In this case this command can also detect the
distance of the error
•
When there is
no link partner
with
no errors
and the
link is up
, this command can detect
the cable length
•
When there is
no link partner with errors
, this command can detect whether the error is
open, short, or crosstalk. In this case this command can also detect the distance of the
error
