Login to Run Diagnostics
You must log in to the diag account to access the hardware diagnostics functionality. The
diag user is a superset of the admin user. The diag user can run all hardware diagnostics in
addition to all of the capabilities available to the admin user. The default password for
the diag user is switch.
Once logged in as a
diag user, the Main Menu will display as follows.

Note the menu listing for Diag underneath the Help sub-menu. To access the diagnostics sub-
menu, enter diag at the prompt. If the display mode is set to verbose, the diagnostics sub-
menu will display as follows:
Command Diagnostic Menu
--------------- -------------------------------------------------------------
reset Reset a module in a slot
maskta Control masking of temperature alarm led
test Run tests on one or more slot modules
framefab Run the Frame Fabric Tests
testdisp Display test blocks on one or all slot modules
testcfg Configure test parameters on one or all slot modules
The test command is the main interface into the diagnostics functionality; you must log in as
diag to run this command. The testdisp and testcfg commands also require being logged in as
diag to run these commands. The reset and maskta commands have specialized functionality;
you do not have to be logged in as diag to use these commands, but you do at least need to
be logged in as admin. Each of the sub-menu options are described in the sections that follow.
