WAN LINES AVAILABLE FOR USE?

VERIFYING WAN LINE AVAILABILITY

1.Determine if WAN lines are operational by viewing the system messages. At the administration console type:

dr <return>

2.For each basic rate or primary rate line configured and attached to the CyberSWITCH, the following line initialization message should be displayed among the system messages:

Data Link up: <slot #> <port #> <ces>

If this message is displayed for each configured line, then the WAN lines are available for use.

Notes: Depending on the resource switch type, the system will delay up to 2 minutes before attempting to bring up the data links.

Other messages may also be displayed with the line initialization messages.

3.If the WAN lines are NOT available, the system may display one of the following messages on the LCD:

Line (slot #, port #) down Out Svc 1 (slot #, port #)

Out Svc (2, 3, 4, or 5) (slot #, port #)

To correct the problem, try the following:

Line (slot #, port #) down:

a.Verify that the line is correctly attached to the proper system resource and port.

b.If the line was correctly attached, try restarting the system.

Out Svc 1 (slot #, port)?

(Layer 1 cannot be established, most likely due to WAN cabling problems.)
