Data link layer protocol flapping or traffic
forwarding failure on serial interface

Symptom

The data link layer protocol state flaps or the traffic forwarding fails on the serial interface.

Solution

To resolve the problem:
1. If the serial interface is physically down, follow the steps described in
interface
2. If the problem persists, collect the following statistics and contact HP Support:
Execute the display hardware internal module interface-number command in probe view to

determine whether the serial interface has received or sent error packets and collect packet
statistics.
Use the debugging physical packet command to enable packet debugging on both devices to

verify that they can correctly send and receive packets. Collect packet sending and receiving
statistics.
Execute the display hardware internal module cpos interface-number statistics command in

probe view to collect statistics of the CPOS interface.
Execute the display hardware internal module cpos interface-number reg 0 command in probe

view to collect the CPLD information of the CPOS interface.
Execute the display hardware internal module cpos interface-number reg 1 command in probe

view to collect the FPGA information of the CPOS interface.
Collect the chip register information of the CPOS interface by executing the following

commands in probe view:
