Chapter 6
Diagnostics and
Troubleshooting
This chapter describes how to:
• Monitor performance
• Detect errors
• Handle alarms
• Troubleshoot problems
• Perform diagnostic tests.
6.1 Monitoring Performance
IPmux-24 provides powerful performance monitoring tools, which consist of the
following three levels:
• E1/T1 statistics – Status of the physical E1/T1 parameters (signal, framing,
etc.)
• Ethernet statistics – Ethernet connection status (speed, duplex mode, bytes
transmitted & received, etc.)
• Bundle connection statistics – TDMoIP bundle connection status on the
Ethernet/IP network level.
Displaying E1/T1 Statistics
E1/T1 statistics refer to the physical status of the E1/T1 traffic reaching IPmux-24
from the adjacent E1/T1 device.
The E1 statistics parameters comply with the G.703, G.704, G.804, G.706, G.732,
and G.823 standards.
The T1 statistics parameters comply with the ANSI T.403, AT&T R62411, G.703,
G.704 and G.804 standards.
E1/T1 statistics are monitored and saved under consecutive intervals. Each
interval is 15 minutes long. There are 96 intervals, which represent the last 24
hours. Whenever a new interval is started, the counters are reset to zero. The old
interval shows the total of events that occurred during its 15-minite period.
The current active interval is always marked as interval 0 (you will see that the
Time Since counter is running). The previous interval is marked as 1 and so on.
The E1/T1 statistic counters cannot be reset manually.
