Troubleshooting

"Procedure 2

To Ping the NMS at the central site:

1.Verify that the central site NMS has the FrameSaver unit's IP address in its routing table so it can communicate with the FrameSaver unit.

2.Verify that the central site NMS's router has the FrameSaver unit's IP address in its routing table so it can communicate with the FrameSaver unit.

3.Verify that the central site NMS has been configured as an SNMP Trap Manager if the router is to route data, so a route has been configured within the FrameSaver unit.

Main Menu → Configuration → Management and Communication →

SNMP Traps

Or, for a local DLCI between the central site FrameSaver unit and its router, verify that a Default IP Destination route has been configured.

Main Menu → Configuration → Management and Communication →

Node IP → Default IP Destination

Configure both SNMP Traps and a Default IP Destination when PVC

Multiplexing is used, as when using the Auto-Configuration feature.

4. Select the IP Ping test.

Main Menu → Test → IP Ping

5.Enter the IP Address of the central site NMS, then select Start.

6.Verify the results of the IP Ping test.

ÐWhile the test is running, In Progress... is displayed in the Status field.

ÐWhen the test is finished, Alive. Latency = nn ms should appear as the Status (nn being the amount of time the test took in milliseconds).

If any other message is displayed, additional testing will be required.

Lamp Test

The FrameSaver unit supports a Lamp Test to verify that all LEDs are lighting and functioning properly. All LEDs flash or blink on and off at the same time every 1/2 second during execution of the test. When the test is stopped, the LEDs are restored to their normal condition.

Main Menu → Test → Lamp Test

If the Test Timeout configuration option is enabled and a Test Duration is set, the Lamp Test stops when the test duration expires. See Test Timeout Feature for additional information.
