The following are examples of the fields contained on the output form. The 
command entered, for each example, was "status link 1." Each example shown is 
for a different type of link connection.
Local Busy Out This value is informational only and no action is 
necessary. It is one of eight counters that tell the history 
from the last "clear link" command of why the link went 
down. In this case, the link when down because the 
switch software made the link local busy. The link is 
made "maintenance busy" as part of the D-channel 
Back Up protocol or when the link is "busied out" via the 
System Access Terminal (SAT).
Firmware Initiated Link Down This value is informational only and no action is 
necessary. It is one of eight counters that tell the history 
from the last "clear link" command of why the link went 
down. In this case, the PI firmware initiated the link 
down. Please consult SCI-BD or PROTOCOL errors to 
determine the cause.
LOCAL/REMOTE 
PROCESSOR CHANNELS
Local/remote processor channel pairs. Each pair 
consists of a processor channel on the local machine 
and a processor channel on the remote machine that 
are connected in the communication session.
NOTE:
For "ISDN-LNK" links, this is no correlation 
between the local and remote processor 
channels. Therefore, only the local processor 
channel is shown (the remote processor channel 
is blank).
