Disabling the MSDL

To disable an MSDL card, enter DIS MSDL x.

To disable the MSDL and all its ports, enter DIS MSDL x ALL.

Resetting the MSDL

To reset an MSDL and initiate a limited self-test, the MSDL must be in a manually disabled state. To perform the reset, enter RST MSDL x.

Displaying MSDL status

To display the status of all MSDL cards, enter STAT MSDL.

To display the status of a specific MSDL, enter STAT MSDL x. The status of the MSDL, its ports, and the operation of each port appears.

The command STAT MSDL x FULL displays all information about an MSDL (card ID, bootload firmware version, base code version, base code state, operation state, date of base code activation) as well as the version, state, and activation date for each card operation.

Self-testing the MSDL

To perform extensive self-testing of an MSDL, enter SLFT MSDL x. This test can be activated if the card is in the manually disabled state. If the test passes, the system outputs the card ID and a pass message. If it fails, the system displays a message indicating which test failed.
