Level 1 Status Inquiry Test (#621)

This test determines the state of the transmission facility of a BRI port at the

Level 1 (L1) or physical layer. L1 can be in one of two possible states: Activated

or Deactivated.

The Activated state is the correct state for an ISDN-BRI port. In this state the

Level 1 interface can communicate with the BRI endpoint or ASAI adjunct

administered on this port. This test passes if the state of L1 is activated. This test

also passes if software has taken this port out of service.

The Deactivated state indicates a problem with the ASAI circuit pack. When in

this state, the Level 1 interface is idle and is not trying to communicate with the

BRI endpoints or adjunct. When an ASAI port is placed in the out-of-service state,

Level 1 is also put into the deactivated state. This could be due either to the

system detecting a fault with the port or in response to a busyout port UUCSSpp

Table 8-62. Test #621 Level 1 Status Inquiry

Description / Recommendation

The board, port, or station may have been busied-out by a technician.

1. Look in the Error Log for Error Type 18 (port busied out) for this port and

2. Make sure the terminal is connected.

3. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.

Response was not received from the circuit pack within the allowable time

1. If the test aborts repeatedly up to 5 times, reset the circuit pack using the

2. If the test aborts again, replace the circuit pack.

Internal system error

Could not allocate the necessary system resources to run this test.

1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals up to 5 times.

ASAI-BD (board busied out). If this error type is present for ASAI-PT only,

then release the port using the release port pp command and run the test

again. If the error is present for both ASAI-BD and ASAI-PT, then release

the board with the release port UUCSS command and run the test again.

When you release a port, you release every port associated with it. If

certain ports still need to be busied out, use the busyout port

UUCSSpp command to busy them out.

busyout board UUCSS and reset board UUCSS commands.
