administered for the signalin g group. If there are prob lems with the ISDN-PRI
Secondary Signaling Channel por t (ISDN-LNK), also investigate the UDS1 circuit
pack (UDS1-BD).
Layer 2 Status Test (#647)
The Layer 2 Status Test checks the layer 2 status of the ISDN-PRI Signaling
Channel (D-channel). This test will fail if there is a hardware failure or a fac ility
problem, or if the primary a nd secondary ISDN-PRI D-channels are not
administered correc tly.
The Primary and Secondary Signaling Link Hard ware tests (test 637 and 639)
and the Remote Layer 3 Query test (test 637) will detec t most problems c aused
by hardware failures or incorrect ad ministration. However, the Layer 3 test (test
637) cannot detect end -to-end transmission prob lems with the Standby
D-channel since Layer 3 messag es are not sent on the standby c hannel.
For G3r , the SYS- LINK Maint enan ce Ob jec t rep orts Laye r 2 ISDN -PRI D- chan nel
problems and for G3i/s/vs, th e PI-LINK Maintenance Object rep orts Layer 2
ISDN-PRI D-channel problems (if the D-channel is connec ted to the Processor
Interface circuit p ack). However, for G3i, the PI-LINK Maintenance Obj ect does
not monitor the Layer 2 status of the ISDN-PRI D-channel when the D-channel is
connected to the Packet Control c ircuit pack for the ISDN-PRI over PACCON
feature. The Layer 2 Query test is provided to d etect D-Channel Layer 2 failures

Error
Code Test Result Description/ Recommendation
ABORT Internal system error
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
1132 ABORT The Secondary D-Channel is not administered for this Signaling Group. This
is a NORMAL ABORT. Only a P ri mary D-Cha nnel must be administered for a
Signaling Group.
8 FAIL There is a problem with the TN464C/D UDS1 Interface circuit pack or the
ISDN-PRI Secondary Signaling Channel (D-Channel). No ISDN trunk or PRI
endpoint calls can be made until the problem is resolved.
1. Consult the procedures for the UDS1 TN464C/D Circuit Pack
(UDS1-BD) and the ISDN-PRI Signaling Channel (ISDN-LNK).
PASS The basic physical connectivity of the Signaling Group’s Secondary
D-channel is intact and functional. Try this test repeatedly to ensure the link
is up and to uncover any transitory problems.
