test 1
Note: If you use the test command to enable an interface that
has been configured at the Config> prompt (from talk 6) as
disabled, when you reboot the multiaccess enclosure the interface
will be disabled again.
Therefore, you should also use the Config> enable interface
command to ensure that the interface is enabled the next time a
reboot does occur.
For details of this procedure, refer to the

Disabling Interfaces that Have WAN Reroute Enabled
Question How do I ensure that WAN Reroute does not try to automatically enable
an alternate interface that is on an adapter about to be removed?
Answer
1 Access the command line interface (* prompt) (see “Accessing the
Operational Diagnostics from the Service Processor” on
page 5-42).
2 Type talk 5 and press Enter twice to reach the + (monitoring)
prompt.
3 Type disable slot
slot#
or disable
interface#
for each interface on
the adapter. For example:
+ disable slot 4
Interface 4 is enabled as a WAN Reroute alternate circuit and should be
disabled as an alternate circuit if you will be removing the adapter
Do you want to disable WAN Reroute on this interface? (Yes, No): [No] Yes
Interface 4 has been disabled as a WAN Reroute alternate circuit
(adapter is removed and replaced)
