■Be aware that customers may use other ports on the ATM switch for applications unrelated to DEFINITY (LAN traffic or multimedia applications, for examples).
■These other applications may manifest themselves in the output of the troubleshooting commands you run on the ATM switch. DEFINITY port networks must be identified by their ATM switch port numbers.
NOTE:
The following examples show DEFINITY port networks connected to ATM switch ports A1.1 and A1.2.
2.Does the TN2305/TN2306’s YELLOW LED flash 100 ms on and 100 ms off, indicating a loss of signal on the fiber? Recall that the TN2305/TN2306 detects continuity problems with either the transmit (bottom) or the receive (top) fibers.
If the fiber shows a loss of signal, refer to the “Fiber Fault Isolation Procedure” in DEFINITY ECS Maintenance for R8r.
3.Is the ATM switch port’s LED indicating a loss of signal on the fiber? Note that the ATM switch may detect continuity problems only with the receive fiber; the state of the transmit fiber might not be detected.
4.Refer to your ATM switch’s quick reference guide for troubleshooting commands.
Possible causes.
Check the following list for possible causes.
■The fiber is disconnected from the ATM switch and/or the TN2305/TN2306 circuit pack.
■The transmit and receive fibers are swapped at the ATM switch or the TN2305/TN2306 circuit pack (but not both).
■There is a break in the fiber.
■The TN2305/TN2306 is not transmitting a carrier (not inserted, not powered, or not administered). See the
—DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 Maintenance for R8r
—DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 Maintenance for R8si
—DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 Maintenance for R8csi
■Hardware safety interlocks on optical transceivers may cut transmitter power if no carrier is received, so lack of a receive carrier could indicate a transmitter problem at the same end.
