3.14 Verify an SP Switch Router Adapter Card on the Router
This section describes tools available with the SP Switch Router system
software to check out newly installed media cards. These tools are to be used
on the SP Switch Router:
• The
ping command tests whether an SP Switch Router Adapter media
card can process and return a message.
• The
grcard [port_number] command tells you the operating state of an
installed SP Switch Router Adapter card.
• The
grreset command allows you to reset the card.
Note:
Output from logs and other system reporting functions refer to the SP
Switch Router Adapter card as DEV1, DEV_V1 or dev1.
3.14.1 Verify Media Card Operation Using ping
Check SP Switch Router Adapter media card viability using the ping
command. This UNIX command is modified to support SP Switch Router
board components. This use of
ping only tests internal communication
between the SP Switch Router control board and the specified media card. It
does not test message routing between media cards or communication
between media cards and external devices.
Note:
The ping command does not disturb normal SP Switch Router
operations.
The
ping -P grid <slot_number> command sends a message to a specified SP
Switch Router Adapter card asking the card to respond back with another
message.
Follow these steps:
1. Log in as root to the SP Switch Router.
