Usage Guidelines
NOTE
Run diagnostics when the switch can be brought off-line. The tests conducted are extensive and affect
traffic that must be processed by the system CPU. The diagnostics are processed by the CPU whether
you run them on an I/O or a management module.
The normal diagnostics are short series of tests that do not test all the internal ASIC functions. On a
management module, the extended diagnostic routine tests all components including the internal ASIC
functions. The management module is taken off-line while the diagnostic test is performed. It is reset
and operational once the test is completed.
ExtremeWare 7.7 Command Reference Guide
Runs an extended diagnostic routine. Takes the switch fabric and ports offline,
and performs extensive ASIC, ASIC-memory, packet memory, and packet
loopback tests.
Runs a normal diagnostic routine. Takes the switch fabric and ports offline,
and performs a simple ASIC and packet loopback test on all the ports.
Runs packet memory diagnostics on an "i" series module or stackable.
Note: This option is available only on the "i" series switches.
Specifies the slot number of an I/O module or the stack number (slot number)
of an "e" series stack.
NOTE: This option is available only on BlackDiamond switches and "e" series
switches in a stacked configuration.
NOTE: This option is available only on BlackDiamond switches.
Specifies to run the diagnostic routine on the stacking port.
NOTE: This option is available only on the Summit 400 switches.
