Verify Network Connectivity

1. Is the IPLIM/IPGWx card IS-NR (In-service Normal)?

   rept-stat-card:mode=full:loc=<IP CARD location>

2. Is the Ethernet port up or down?

   rept-stat-card:mode=full:loc=<IP CARD location>

3. Are there errors on the Ethernet Interfaces? Are there collisions? CRC errors? Alignment errors? Retransmits?

   pass:loc=<IP card location>:cmd=netstat -d 0 <For Ethernet Interface A>

   pass:loc=<IP card location>:cmd=netstat -d 1 <For Ethernet Interface B>

4. Are there checksum errors?

   pass:loc=<IP card location>:cmd="netstat -p sctp

   Change the SCTP checksum if there are errors, rtrv-sg-opts will show you what checksum is set at; this must match on both ends.

5. Is the far end reachable? Does ping or traceroute work? Is the RTT acceptable? Is there Packet loss?

   pass:loc=<IP card location>:cmd=ping <far-end IP address>

   pass:loc=<IP card location>:cmd="traceroute <far-end IP Address>"

6. What is the delay or jitter of the network?

   pass:loc=<IP card location>:cmd="assocrtt <association>"

7. What is the far end advertising?

   pass:loc=<IP card location>:cmd="sctp -a association>"
