ASAI-BD (Multi-Application Platform Board)
S8700 | 8710 / S8500
Maintenance testing of the common circuit pack is handled by on-board firmware and
server-controlled tests. Maintenance software queries the firmware for error and alarm
information, status, and test results. Firmware automatically reports error conditions that result
in server-controlled testing.
For MAPD board insertion, the switch makes an additional board query if any of the following
circuit packs are inserted:
For any of the previous initial board uplinks, the switch queries the board for administration data
as well as reporting the switch software release and the system type.
For the native mode, the response to the board query downlink messages consists of several
CCMS uplink messages that identify the true board code, vintage, suffix, emulation type, and
number of reserved slots needed.
Note:
Note: Refer to LAN-BD Maintenance documentation for circuit pack level errors. See
also ASAI-PT
on page 494 and ASAI-EPT on page 484 for related line
information. See the following exceptions listed below:
● Hyperactivity: Currently, the common circuit pack is considered “hyperactive” if the
Service Dispatcher receives 200 uplink messages from the circuit pack in a 10-second
period. Since MAPD has 32 ports, the hyperactivity limit increases to 500 uplink
messages per 10 seconds. The switch issues an alarm when the limit reaches 400;
when it reaches 500 up-link messages in 10 seconds, the board is taken out of service.
