Power-On-Self-Test (POST)
Overview
The Switch checks the state of the Mode switches as part of its power-up
procedure. Refer to Figure 4-1 for the location of the Mode switches. Refer to the
Chassis Switch Panel appendix for a description of these switches.
Figure 4-1 Chassis Switch Panel
The default setting of these switches instructs the Switch to run the diagnostics
one time at startup. If no fatal errors are encountered, the Switch places itself in
normal operating mode. The diagnostics run at startup are the Power-On-Self-
Test (POST) diagnostics.
These POST diagnostics check the entire Switch except for the GBICs. During
the POST the Switch logs any errors encountered. Some of the POST errors are
fatal (meaning that the Switch must not try to operate with that particular error)
and some POST errors are non-fatal (meaning that the Switch can operate in a
degraded mode until the problem can be corrected).
