Packet Circuit Pack Audit Test (#573)
This test determines whether Packet circuit packs have reported Packet
Bus-related in-line errors within the last minute. If so, the failure code indicates
whether one or more circuit packs have reported failures within the last minute.
Due to the one minute time constraint included as part of this test, the test is
designed to delay 15 seconds before returning a result in cases where the test
has failed within the last five minutes. This procedure helps ensure that a
repeated sequence of the test does not always yield the same result. If no failure
has occurred in the last five minutes, a PASS is returned immediately.

Result Description/Recommendation
2500 ABORT An internal operation failed; the test could not be completed.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5
times.
1 FAIL One Packet circuit pack has reported Packet Bus-related in-line
errors within the last minute.
2 FAIL More than one Packet circuit pack has reported Packet Bus-related
in-line errors within that last minute.
1. Refer to the “Packet Bus Fault Isolation Flowchart” section in
Chapter 9 to determine the cause of the error reports.
PASS No Packet circuit packs have reported Packet Bus-related in-line
errors within the last minute. This indicates that the Packet Bus is
healthy, or that a Packet Bus fault is transient or is being caused by
a faulty Packet circuit pack. If this test passes while there are other
signs of a Packet Bus failure (as indicated, for example, in the
Error/Alarm Logs or by other test failures), refer to the “Packet Bus
Fault Isolation Flowchart” section in Chapter 9 to isolate the
problem.
