Chapter 1 General Troubleshooting

1.7 Restore the Database and Default Settings

Step 5 Clear the terminal loopback on the port:

a.Double-click the source-node CE100T-8 card with the terminal loopback.

b.Click the Maintenance > Loopback tabs.

c.Select None from the Loopback Type column for the port being tested.

d.Select the appropriate state (IS; OOS,DSBLD; OOS,MT) in the Admin State column for the port being tested.

e.Click Apply.

f.Click Yes in the confirmation dialog box.

Step 6 Clear the terminal loopback circuit:

a.Click the Circuits tab.

b.Choose the loopback circuit being tested.

c.Click Delete.

d.Click Yes in the Delete Circuits dialog box. Do not check any check boxes.

The entire circuit path has now passed its comprehensive series of loopback tests. This circuit qualifies to carry live traffic.
