Self-Testing

The V7111 gateway features two self-testing modes used to identify faulty hardware
components:
Rapid: The Rapid test is performed every time the V7111 gateway starts up.
executed each time the V7111 gateway completes its initialization process. This is a
short test phase in which the only error detected and reported is failure in initializing
hardware components. If an error is detected, an error message is sent to the Syslog.
Detailed: Used in addition to the Rapid and Enhanced test modes. The test is performed
on startup, when initialization of the V7111 gateway is completed and if the parameter
EnableDiagnostics is set to 1 or 2. In this mode, the V7111 gateway tests its DSPs, RAM

running, the Ready and Fail LEDs are lit.
If an error is detected, an error message is sent to the Syslog.
WARNING:
To continue regular operation the Detailed test must be disabled. Set the parameter
