Administering E1 and T1 Services
Using Net/E1 and Net/T1 status windows
In the preceding example, the first line shows that the type of physical interface to the WAN is
a T1/PRI Network I/F. The second line shows the number of network interfaces associated
with the module. The third line shows whether internal CSUs are installed for the T1 lines.
Displaying errors
The Line Errors status window shows errors recorded on all current channels, in a
channel-by-channel, line-by-line list. This is the case even if the interface is disabled in the
Line N profile.
To display the Line Errors window, tab to a status window, then use the arrow keys to select a
menu item representing a slot configuration (this section assumes a slot configured for T1
lines). After selecting that item, select the Line Errors window:
10-000 Net/T1
10-100 Line 1 Stat
10-200 Line 2 Stat
>10-300 Line Errors
Then, when you press Enter or the Right Arrow key, the T1 Line Errors window displays the
channel-by-channel errors accumulated during all current calls. The window is divided into
three columns. For example:
10-300 Errors
1: 0 -
2: 33 -
3: 33 -
The first column displays the T1 channel number followed by a colon (:). For a BRI line, it
lists the line numbers (1 through 8).
The second column indicates the number of byte errors the MAX has detected on the channel
in Line 1 during the current call. The third column displays the number of byte errors the MAX
has detected on the channel in Line 2 during the current call.
If a channel is not associated with a current call, a hyphen (-) appears instead of a number. Any
channel that would not have a number in either is omitted from the display.
Displaying link and channel status
The Line Stat windows (Line 1 Stat and Line 2 Stat) show the dynamic status of each WAN
line, the condition of its electrical link to the carrier, and the status of its individual channels.
To display the line status window, tab to a status window, then use the arrow keys to access the
Line N Stat window, in the Net/T1 (or Net/E1) menu. For example:
10-100 1234567890
L1/LA ----------
12345678901234
