A500 Administration
Is the A500 administered correctly?
1. Enter show signaling summary on the A500 console. Figure 4-17 shows
the screen output.
Figure 4-17. Screen output for the show signaling summary command
a. If an A500 port to which a S8700 Multi-Connect port network is
attached is not listed in this display, it is likely that the port was
administered incorrectly as having no UNI signaling (admin link
command).
Ensure that fields listed have the following values.
2. If the A500 was administered using hard-coded PNNI routes to identify
each endpoint, enter show signaling routes on the A500 console.
Figure 4-18 on page 4-40 shows the screen output from the command.
Field Value
IntType
Network
If it is User, links will not come up between the EPNs.
Signaling UNI3.1
If it is
UNI3.0, links will not come up between the EPNs.
ILMI Preferred value of is No, however this alone does not
prevent links from coming up between the EPNs.
SAP State May or may not be UP. Their values depend on more
than just whether the port was marked as UP. (See
highlighted data for SAP State in
Figure 4-17.)
