Figure 45. The Sample Console Screen to Check the Physical Connection

Notes:

1

This SHOW PORT command was issued when the physical cabling
has been done but the remote device is power off.

2

You can get the status shown in several lines, but the main status is
shown in the first line. The UP-NO ACTIVITY means the status
physical cabling is done but no physical layer activity is detected.

3

This SHOW PORT command was issued when the physical connection
was up and the remote device is been ready.

4

The UP-OKAY means the remote device is attached to the ATM
network.

The typical reasons an ATM device might be unable to make a physical
connection are as follows:

Cabling

If a fiber cable is used, check to see if the each end of the cable is
connected to the appropriate connector, transmit or receive. And if a copper
cable is used, check to see that the pinouts of the cable and each end of the
cable are matched, especially when you use a non-Forum-compliant adapter
or the connection is between ATM switches.
