Debugging
This section walks you through the EPSR debugging output as links go down and come back up again. The debugging output comes from the ring in "Example 1: A Basic Ring" on page 11. The output shows what happened when we took down two separate links in turn:
•
•
first, the link between the master node’s primary port and transit node B
second, the link between the two transit nodes B and C
To enable debugging on the domain called “test”, use the command:
enable epsr=test debug=all
Note that the master node transmits Health messages every second by default. The debugging displays every message, including all Health messages. Therefore, we recommend that you capture the debugging output for separate analysis, to make analysis simpler.
Link Down Between Master Node and Transit Node
This section shows the debugging output when the link between the master node’s primary port and transit node B goes down and comes back up again. It shows the debugging output for the complete failure and recovery cycle:
•
•
first on the master node
then on transit node B.
Master Node (Node A) Debug Output
The following debugging output starts with the ring established and in a state of Complete.
1.The master node sends Health messages
Each time the Hello timer expires, the master node sends a Health message out its primary port (port 1). As long as the ring is in a state of Complete, it receives each Health message again on its secondary port (port 2). Note that in the System field, this output shows the MAC address of the source of the
