Read and Clear Board Counters (#887)
This test involves sending commands to read on-circuit pack error counters on the
TN2401/TN794 NetPkt circuit pack. It also verifies the message interface between
the SPE and the Packet Interface.
This test checks different counters depending on whether the Packet Interface is
on the active or standby SPE.
If the Packet Interface is on the active SPE, this test reads and clears the Parity
Error counter and FIFO Overflow counter. Those counters are not used when a
Packet Interface is in standby mode.
If the Packet Interface is on the standby SPE, this test reads but does not clear
the Translation RAM counter. The Translation RAM counter is not cleared since
the number of bad translations RAM locations indicates bad locations that cannot
be used. For a Packet Interface on the active SPE, information about the number
of bad Translation location is sent to maintenance software as an in-line error from
the circuit pack so it is not necessary to read a counter location.

ABORT Packet Interface is in the out-of-service state so normal
maintenance tests will not run on it.
1. Reset the Packet Interface using the reset packet-interface
CS command. Refer to the Packet Interface Reset Test
(#889) maintenance documentation for repair procedures.
1338 ABORT The test is not allowed to run since a planned SPE interchange is
in progress. A planned interchange may be caused by 24 hour
scheduled testing. During this time the terminal will be held out of
service but it should recover automatically after 3 minutes.
1. Wait 3 minutes and retry the command.
