Table 2-4 explains each field on the
STATUS SWITCH-LINK
portion of the
Diagnose Switch Link screen. When troubleshooting, first make sure that the link
is
In service
(State field) and
Up
(Link Level 2 field). If the link is Down, there
is likely a physical connection problem (cabling) or a translation problem on the
switch. Access the alarm log for more information. See Chapter 1, “Getting

DCIU Interface Circuit Card Diagnostics
The DCIU interface circuit card is equipped with diagnostic utilities that test
circuit card functionality. This diagnostic checks the circuit card’s timer and
parity. It also does several local loopback tests.
If the system detects a switch link problem, it can invoke this diagnostic
automatically.
