Diagnostic Tests

All switching modules are subjected to extensive power-on diagnostics during the Power-On
Self-Test cycle (

POST

). These diagnostics are designed to be as extensive as possible without

causing disruption to external networks or requiring special test connections. While the diag-
nostics are running, the

MPX

OK2

LED

will be flashing green.

LED

s on the switching module

can provide information on the success or failure of these tests. Also refer to Chapter 35,
“Troubleshooting,” for information on error conditions reflected in the

LED

displays.

More extensive diagnostic tests are available for off-line testing of switching modules. See
Chapter 36, “Running Hardware Diagnostics,” for further information.
