Translations and Testing
172Switch-to-INTUITY Translations
The following tests can be run from the INTUITY system to test the link to the
switch:
■ Customer/Services Administration > Diagnostics > Switch Link
Diagnostics > Link Diagnostics
This screen is an example of a TCP/IP link. It shows the link being in
service.
If the link status and session status show DOWN, use the following function
keys to test the link:
— tests to see if the link is electrically connected. Run this test first.
If it fails, check the cabling.
— resets the link. After finished, press to refresh the link. If it still
does not come up, check the switch and INTUITY system adminis-
tration.
You can also press to change the function key labels and use the
following to control the status of the link:
— busies-out the link
— releases the link from busy-out.
■ Customer/Services Administration > Diagnostics > Switch Link
Diagnostics > Session Layer Diagnostics
Press every few seconds to see if the sequence numbers increment. If
the numbers do not increment, data transfer is not taking place.
