OVERVIEW
After your CyberSWITCH has been configured, and before proceeding with normal system
operation, it is necessary to verify that the system is functional. This chapter provides instructions
for verifying the system hardware and system configuration.
You only need to perform the verification procedures for the options that apply to your
configuration. For example, if your configuration does not use SNMP, skip the SNMP verification
section.
To perform the verification procedures, WAN lines must be available and ready to use. LAN
attachment components must also be available and ready to use.
During some of the procedures, we ask you to enter an administration console command. To enter
these commands, you must have an active administration session. If you need instructions for
starting an administration session, refer to Accessing the CyberSWITCH.
Note: At least one remote device is required to proceed with many of the verification procedures.
VERIFYING HARDWARE RESOURCES ARE OPERATIONAL
To verify the operation of the WAN and LAN hardware resources:
1. At the system prompt, enter the
dr
command to display current system messages. At the
administration console type:
dr
<return>
2. If you have enabled bridging, look for these LAN adapter initialization messages among the
system messages:
LAN Port <port #> is now in the LISTENING state
LAN Port <port #> is now in the LEARNING state
LAN Port <port #> is now in the FORWARDING state
3. If you have enabled IP routing, look for this LAN adapter initialization message among the
system messages:
[IP] IP router is initialized successfully
Note: Other messages may also be displayed with the LAN adapter initialization messages.
If these LAN adapter initialization messages are displayed, then the LAN adapter is operational.
Proceed to the next section.
If these LAN adapter initialization messages are NOT displayed, refer to LAN Adapter in the
Problem Diagnosis chapter.
