PTX5000 Troubleshooting Resources Overview
To troubleshoot a packet transport switch, you use the Junos OS command-line interface
(CLI), LCD, alarms, devices connected to the alarm relay contacts, and LEDs on both the
components and craft interface.
•
LEDs—When the Routing Engine detects an alarm condition, it lights the red or yellow
alarm LED on the craft interface as appropriate. In addition, you can also use the
component-specific LEDs on the craft interface and on the faceplate of a component
to troubleshoot the packet transport switch.
•
LCD—When a red or yellow alarm occurs, the cause of the alarm messages is displayed
on the craft interface LCD. Use the CLI to display more information about the alarm.
•
Alarm devices connected to the alarm relay contact—When a red or yellow alarm
occurs, it trips the corresponding alarm relay contact.
•
CLI—The CLI is the primary tool for controlling and troubleshooting hardware, Junos
OS, routing protocols, and network connectivity. CLI commands display information
