Overview of On-Demand Diagnostics
You initiate an on-demand diagnostic (ODD) session (one or more tests) from the SmartEdge OS
command-line interface (CLI). These tests diagnose the standby controller card and traffic cards. You can
also run tests on more than one card simultaneously. The following guidelines apply to the on-demand
testing of traffic and controller cards:
• ODD testing requires version 2.0.2.9 or later of the system bootrom. To view the currently installed
version, enter the show version command in any mode. To upgrade the bootrom, enter the upgrade
bootrom command in exec mode. For more information about these commands, see the “File and
Release Operations” chapter in the Basic System Operations Guide for the SmartEdge OS.
• To test a traffic card, you must put it in the ODD state; see the “Initiate an ODD Session” section on
page 5-33, for instructions.
• The cards that can be tested depend on the release of the software. In the current release, you can test
the following cards:
— Controller cards (any version), when they are functioning as standby controllers
— Second-generation ATM OC cards
— 10/100 Ethernet and Fast Ethernet-Gigabit Ethernet (FE-GE) cards
— Transceiver-based Gigabit Ethernet cards (all versions)
— AONET/SDH OC-192c/STM-64c card
• Low-density versions of traffic cards are also supported, but only the enabled ports are tested.
Note You cannot run ODD tests on the active controller card.
