Preparing the ATM adapter for LANE

Verifying that the ATM adapter is installed and functioning

Verifying that the adapter works  Top

To verify that the ATM adapter is functioning, complete the following step.

Step

Action

1

Enter the following command:

atm adinfo

You can perform the atm adinfo command again at any time to determine the correct unit number.

Example of the atm adinfo command  Top

Sample output from the adinfo command is as follows:

atm adinfo
a1:unit 1:      PCA-200E Media=OC3-MM-SC HW=2.0.1 FW=4.2.0 
Serial=4201600 Slot=1
        MAC=00:20:48:40:1C:80
a2:unit 2:      PCA-200E Media=OC3-MM-SC HW=2.0.1 FW=4.2.0 
Serial=4201621 Slot=2
        MAC=00:20:48:40:1C:95
a3:unit 3:      PCA-200E Media=OC3-MM-SC HW=2.0.1 FW=4.2.0 
Serial=4201955 Slot=3
        MAC=00:20:48:40:1D:E3

Interpreting the output  Top

You should see lines for each ATM adapter in your filer that is functioning properly. The presence of the lines indicate that the adapter has passed its self-test procedure and that the filer initialized the adapter. The adinfo command also displays the device name for each of the installed adapters, as well as the unit number, at the beginning of each line.

The unit number uniquely identifies the ATM adapter in the filer, and there is a one-to-one mapping between the device names and unit numbers. The device name consists of the prefix `a' followed by the physical slot number. The unit number is the slot number.
