The currently selected card is indicated in the command line
prompt which returns after each command. The four part number
shown on this line is NOT an Ethernet IP address. It is a Verilink
specific node address used to identify this NCM.

Firmware

Version

The firmware version release level appears on the top line. The
NCM has a revision number series distinct from that of individual
application modules.

NOTE: The version levels shown in screen samples are placeholders only

and do not reflect the version level(s) as they may appear in your

system. Firmware revision levels vary according to several factors,

including special firmware generated for specific customers, as well

as more generic versions.

Shelf Symbols

Directly to the right of the Shelf column:

The M next to Shelf 2 indicates it is a multi-line or quint-line shelf.

The D next to the Shelf 1 indicates it is a dual-line shelf.

Element

Symbols

Each module (element) is represented in the matrix display by a
character. The key to these symbols is included in the screen,
beneath the Shelf/Slot matrix. See

Table 2-1

.

The shelf master is indicated by an asterisk (*). When an NCM card
is present, it should be the shelf master. In the absence of an NCM,
some other card will become shelf master.

Selection

Brackets

Brackets around an element in the shelf (for example: [N]) indicate
that the element is currently selected. For example, the brackets
around the letter N indicate the shelf and slot location of the
primary NCM in the node is currently selected: [*N].

A question mark [?] in place of an element symbol indicates the
firmware of the NCM does not know about the module in the
shelf/slot location.

A hyphen [-] in place of an element symbol indicates the shelf/slot
location is empty.

Unknown

If the word “UNKNOWN" appears in place of the name of one of the
elements in the K

EY

, it means one of the following conditions:

the current firmware does not know about the element
