Verifying and Troubleshooting Line Card Installation

Status LEDs

Each 4-port ISE ATM line card provides the following two types of LEDs (see Figure 5) for monitoring the operating status of the line card:

Status LEDs – 3 lines grouped next to each port on the line card:

Active

Carrier

RX Cell

Display (alphanumeric) LEDs – 2 lines, 4-digit alphanumeric (see the “Alphanumeric LEDs” section on page 27).

The status LEDs are described in Table 10.

Remote line RDI received.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Off

LOS, LOF, or LAIS detected.

 

 

 

 

The RX Cell LED flashes when data is being received.

The status LEDs on the line card might not go on until you configure the line card interfaces (or turned them on if they were shut down). To verify correct operation of each interface, complete the configuration procedures for the line card (see the “Configuring and Troubleshooting Interfaces” section on page 32).

Alphanumeric LEDs

ATM line cards have two four-digit alphanumeric LED displays at one end of the faceplate, near the ejector lever, that display a sequence of messages indicating the state of the card. In general, the LEDs do not turn on until the RP recognizes and powers up the card. As it boots, the line card displays a sequence of messages similar to those in Table 11.

Note It is normal for some displayed messages to appear too briefly to be read. Also, some messages listed in Table 11 and Table 12 may not appear on your line card.
