Maintenance Object Repair Procedure
555-233-142
8-944 Issue 1 May 2002
1–3 FAIL The test failed. Either maintenance could not establish a loop-around link from
the IPSI’s Packet Interface circuit back to itself or could not receive data that
was sent on one side of the loop-around link.
1. Issue the test packet-interface Uc command to retry the test.
If the same error code is observed, background maintenance software will
automatically attempt to reset the circuit pack and clear the problem.
2. Retry the command and if the test fails, replace the IPSI circuit pack.
3. If the test continues to fail after replacing the IPSI circuit pack, run the test
packet P long command.
If any of the tests fail, the fault may be on the packet bus. See‘‘PKT-BUS
(Packet Bus)’’ on page 8-918 for recommended repair procedures.
4. If the test continues to fail after the circuit pack is replaced and with no
other alarms associated with the packet bus or circuit packs connected to
the packet bus, follow normal escalation procedures.
PASS This test passed. The IPSI circuit pack and its interface with the server are
functioning properly. If the system is unable to place calls on EPNs served by
this IPSI, then:
1. Check for packet-bus errors, and solve those errors first.
2. Check for errors in the EPN where calls cannot be completed, and solve
those errors.
3. Check every other circuit pack connected to the packet bus in the same
cabinet. Packet-bus failures are likely to be caused by a faulty circuit pack
connected to the backplane or bent pins on the back plane.
4. Check the IPSI circuit pack’s Packet Interface circuit that serves this EPN
for errors, and resolve these errors.
5. If errors continue, escalate.
