Nortel Networks 6300 manual Normal Mode Error Sequence

Chapter 4 Troubleshooting Procedures

Activity N2: Testing the Hardware

Activity NE2: Hardware Failure

During the power-up sequence, the Remote Annex 6300 runs a series of self-test diagnostics. These diagnostics test internal hardware functions. If a test fails, the ATTN and STAT LEDs flash and an error message is displayed on the console port. The Ethernet LED (Link LED) lights for a few seconds, then the TRAF LED flashes during the power-up self-tests. After the self-tests complete, only the STAT and Ethernet Link LED remain on.

Normal Mode Error Sequence

Table 4-3 shows the state of the LEDs when an error occurs at various stages of the start-up process. If the Remote Annex 6300 fails during the hardware-test state (N2), the error condition is hardware failure NE2. A description of possible causes and solutions for each error condition is in the following paragraphs.
