Maintenance Using TDR
The time domain reflectometer (TDR) is supported on all Dell Networking switch/routers.
TDR is an assistance tool to resolve link issues that helps detect obvious open or short conditions within any
of the four copper pairs. TDR sends a signal onto the physical cable and examines the reflection of the signal
that returns. By examining the reflection, TDR is able to indicate whether there is a cable fault (when the cable
is broken, becomes unterminated, or if a transceiver is unplugged).
TDR is useful for troubleshooting an interface that is not establishing a link; that is, when the link is flapping or
not coming up. TDR is not intended to be used on an interface that is passing traffic. When a TDR test is run
on a physical cable, it is important to shut down the port on the far end of the cable. Otherwise, it may lead to
incorrect test results.
NOTE:
TDR is an intrusive test. Do not run TDR on a link that is up and passing traffic.
To test and display TDR results, use the following commands.
1
To test for cable faults on the TenGigabitEthernet cable.
EXEC Privilege mode
tdr-cable-test tengigabitethernet
slot/port
[/
subport
]
Between two ports, do not start the test on both ends of the cable.
Enable the interface before starting the test.
Enable the port to run the test or the test prints an error message.
2 Displays TDR test results.
EXEC Privilege mode
show tdr tengigabitethernet
slot/port
[/
subport

Non Dell-Qualified Transceivers
The system supports Dell-qualified transceivers and only some of the non Dell-qualified transceivers.
If the system displays an error message similar to the following, the transceiver is not Dell-qualified. The Dell
Networking OS places the interface in error-disabled (operationally down) state.
Apr 29 05:09:16: %S4048-ON:1 %IFAGT-2-TRANSCEIVER_UNSUPPORTED_ERROR: Transceiver
in slot 1 port 50 unrecognized, putting interface in operational-down state
The following command output displays that the interface is in error-disabled state:
Dell#show interfaces fortyGigE 1/50
fortyGigE 1/50 is up, line protocol is down(error-disabled[Transceiver
Unsupported])
Hardware is DellEth, address is 34:17:eb:f2:25:c6
Current address is 34:17:eb:f2:25:c6
Non-qualified pluggable media present, QSFP type is 40GBASE-SR4
