Monitoring and Troubleshooting

This chapter provides system-level monitoring and troubleshooting
and for the AS2000.

Front Panel LED

Indicators

The front panel module provides a set of tri-state/tri-color LEDs to
help inform of system status, monitor network performance, and
interpret problems on a network.

LEDs indicate the general status of a module and module ports. For
detailed information during alarm conditions, review the reports in
the alarm buffer for the affected port.

Table 5-1

provides a

description of the LED color coding for application modules.

Table 5-1 LED States

NOTE: For TABS-based protocol CSU products (NCCs, TACs, and

SCCs) an unlit STAT LED indicates no alarms.

The NCM shelf master and node master three status LEDs (ACT,
ALM, SYS) are lit. The shelf master ACT LED blinks when it is polled
by the node master, approximately once per minute.

See the individual application module user manuals for more
detailed information on interpreting their LEDs.
