Diagnosing pluggable transceivers
The system outputs alarm information for you to diagnose and troubleshoot faults
of pluggable transceivers. Optical transceivers customized by 3Com also support
the digital diagnosis function, which enables a transceiver to monitor the main
parameters such as temperature, voltage, laser bias current, TX power, and RX
power. When these parameters are abnormal, you can take corresponding
measures to prevent transceiver faults.
Follow these steps to display pluggable transceiver information:
To do...
Display the current alarm
information of the pluggable
transceiver(s)
Display the currently
measured value of the digital
diagnosis parameters of the
anti-spoofing optical
transceiver(s) customized by
3Com
Pause frames, which can be utilized as packets to attack a network, are used in
traffic controlling. A switch that has pause frame protection mechanism enabled
discards the detected pause frames that are utilized to attack the network it
resides and logs these attacks in the logbuffer. If the switch experiences successive
pause frame attacks, it sends messages to the console to warn users.
