test port
This command performs hardware diagnostic tests on an individual port circuit.
In most cases, tests are performed on hardware connected to the port.
!
WARNING:
Since the “clear long” options clear all counters if tests pass, it is possible
for firmware counters to be cleared even when a problem exists. In some
cases customer service might degrade since calls may be routed over
defective equipment.
1. If no alarms are registered against the maintenance object then the test sequence is run only once. The long
clear
option forces a clear of all alarms if no errors are encountered during testing. The short clear option only
clears alarms pertinent to tests in the short sequence. SEE WARNING BELOW.
2. Refer to the Report Scheduler and System Printer feature specification for more details.
