First some general information is displayed such as Router version and build date. Then some statistics are displayed:

 

Current Time

This is Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Most telecommunications

 

 

equipment use UTC time as a common time reference.

 

Local Time

This is ICM local time, as determined by time zone setting on the

 

 

Cisco ICM Call Router.

 

Router Up

This is how long the Cisco ICM Call Router function has been up

 

 

and running.

 

Router Sync

This shows which side of the Cisco ICM call router last sent a state

 

 

transfer to the other side.

 

Within the Status Process output, LastStateChange contains these fields:

OK

Signifies that the process is running fine.

M

Signifies the Cisco proprietary Message Delivery Service (MDS) protocol is used to keep

 

the process synchronized.

H

Signifies that the process sends and receives internal heartbeat messages using the MDS

 

protocol.

 

Date

Current date.

 

Time

Current local time.

 

Up-Time

In parenthesis is length of time the process has been in current state.

LastHeartBeat

If the process participates in sending and receiving MDS heartbeats, this value is the

 

timestamp of the last heartbeat that was sent/received by the process.
