SYS-LINK (System Links)
System Links are packet links that originate at the Packet Interface board and
traverse various hardware components to specific endpoints. The hardware
components involved on the forward and reverse routes can be different,
depending upon the configuration and switch administration. This software
release supports the following link types:
Recording System Link Events
The system links maintenance object is used to record all errors encountered on
the links. Most of these events are not extra-ordinary, unless they occur with an
alarming frequency. The events are logged as they occur, so as to leave a trail
helping analyze abnormal behavior exhibited by the endpoints attached to the
links or the links themselves.
When a link goes down, a WARNING alarm is raised immediately. Other alarming
conditions which do not cause the link to go down also get a WARNING alarm.
Identifying a System Link
In order to trace problems associated with a system link, it is necessary to find its
location. A PRI link can be uniquely identified by its endpoints.
Display Errors/Alarms
The output of the
display errors
or
display alarm
commands shows the location
of the system link for entries with a Maintenance Name of SYS-LINK. You can
restrict the scope of the output of these commands by specifying category
sys-link
on the input form. The link type is listed under the Alt Name field.
List sys-link
The command
list sys-link
lists all system links present in the system. The
location of the system link and the link type are displayed for each link.
