Preventive Maintenance Procedure for ITI Supplied 3COM RAS A. Physical Inspection before starting of the Preventive Maintenance
1. Check the Status of the LEDs on ARC cards (details of LED and expected results is available in Annexure )
2. Check the Status of the LEDs on DSP cards (details of LED and expected results is available in Annexure )
3. Check for the Status of the LEDs on NMC cards (details of LED and expected results is available in Annexure )
A.1 Observations/Output from RAS for ARC and DSP cards S.No. Observation Test Result Remark
( if any) 1. Use command
‘MONITOR RADIUS’
(i) Press ‘E’
(ii) Press ‘D’
Select a letter for one of the following options: A) Monitor all RADIUS packets B) Monitor all RADIUS authentication packets C) Monitor all RADIUS accounting packets D) Monitor a specific user E) Monitor next session F) Monitor all packets to a specific server G) Monitor resource management packets X) Exit the monitor Check for the authentication status of the next session It gives details of the Access-Request and Access—Accept or Access-Reject vis-à-vis configured Radius. Similarly, one specific user access-request, access-accept/reject ( e.g. nib_test) may be seen.

2. Use command ‘MONITOR PPP’ (i) Press ‘U’ (ii) Press ‘N’
Select a letter for one of the following options: C) Monitor PPP Call Events. I) Monitor a specific interface. N) Monitor the next session that starts up. U) Monitor a specific user. T) Monitor a specific calling number. X) Exit the monitor. Please Enter Your Choice : To see the authentication details for the specific users. ( e.g. One can see the session from one specific user like ‘nib_test’ then enter this in the user_name field and connect with ‘nib_test’ and see the result Check for the Next session from any user that starts up. that starts up
3. Show all active interface
This command shows the setting configuration for all active interfaces.
4. Show all interfaces This commands display all configured IP networks
5. list ip pools To see the details of the configured IP Pools on the ARC cards The ‘state’ should be ‘public’.’
Page 8 of 20
6. list interfaces
This command line on the ARC shows Operation status and Admin Status of Modems on ARC Operation status indicates the ARC has the communication with the modem cards. Administrative Status indicates the user-defined status of the interface. In order to calls, the status of the both should be UP.
(i) If there is Operation Status is down for any interface then there is a packet bus problem. Check to see if the card is there in the slot and that its RUN/FAIL light is green.
(ii) If the Admin Status is down for any interface then the modem is not enabled.
7. Sh version Displays the ARC software version
8. Sh cpu utilization This command displays an estimate of the router card’s CPU usage over various intervals.
9. sh system It shows the Software version and other details like
(i) System Descriptor (ii) Object ID (iii) System Up time (iv) System name (v) System location (vi) System Version etc.
10. show board crashdump
It is a diagnostic tool for displaying information about a previous system crash stored in EEPROM This is useful for debugging purposes only
11. Show statistics This set of commands display statistical call and modem information. Call_disconnect_eason Call_duration Call_statistics Call_per_hour Modem_utilization
Page 9 of 20
12 sh board Setting It shows the Hardware information of the ARC Card
13 sh memory It shows the ARC memory status.
14 list dns servers This command displays the information of the DNS servers already configured.
15 Show Statistics call_statistics
This commands gives the summary detail of Summary of Successful calls and Unsuccessful calls
Following Cards with Serial Nos. tested and found OK. The output of various commands attached */seen.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
• In view of network security the output of various commands shall not be handed over to M/s ITI engineer, however the output must be checked at the node itself by the M/s ITI engineer for any problem.

B. Observations/Output from RAS for ARC and DSP cards after completion of Preventive Maintenance
1. Check for the Authentication and browsing for all the Services Configured on the Equipment ( e.g. Netone ).
2. Ping for the any site like ‘www.yahoo.com’ 3. Use command traceroute ‘Radius Server’ (Here Radius IP will be used for the Radius server
marked for the location.

OFF OFF No network This is normal if there is no traffic activity on the network. If it is suspected that there is LAN connectivity problem , issue the PING command to NMC from the remote site.
(c) NMC WAN LED Diagnostics WAN TX WAN RX Condition Description Flashing Green Flashing Green NAC is transmitting The WAN Status is operational and receiving the data OFF Flashing Green Improper network NMC is on the network but is not configuration configured properly. Verify that the NMC local WANIP IP protocol settings are correct. PING command to NMC from the remote site. OFF OFF No network This is normal if there is no traffic activity on the network. If it is suspected that there is WAN connectivity problem , issue the PING command to NMC from the
