d. Error Type 257: Tracks failures of the SIP signaling-group PING test. See Signaling Group
Ping Test (#1387) for test failure information.
Signaling Group Ping Test (#1387)(Same test for error 513)
This test checks the circuitry involved in the data path of a peer-to-peer IP layer connection. It is
only run for those signaling groups that have an administered far-end IP address. If the H.323 or
SIP signaling group does not have an administered far-end IP address, the test will abort.
The test determines the local C-LAN through which the signaling originates, and the far-end
terminating IP address. It then requests the local C-LAN to execute a PING on the far-end
address. If the PING is successful, the test passes. If the ping is not successful, the test fails.
Note:
Note: Multiple failures of this test will cause this signaling group’s associated H.323 or
SIP B-Chels to be taken out of service (OOSFE). This will allow incoming calls to
be made when the far-end comes up before the near end has detected it. The
signaling group will be left in service, but in the far end bypass state.
If the PING is successful, the test looks at the PING round-trip delay. If a round-trip delay of
greater than 4 seconds is reported, a separate error is logged. Excessive round-trip delays
within the signaling group will not take the signaling group out of service.
The standard PING command can be executed using the C-LAN board’s address and far-end
IP address from the signaling group screen to see the actual round-trip delay.
This test runs on H323-SGR (H.323 Signaling Group) and SIP-SGRP (SIP Signaling Group).
b. Error Type 1: Failure of the C-LAN hardware (IP-PROCR in S8300 systems) carrying the
signaling group chel.
To determine which C-LAN had been administered for this signaling group, find the
near-end node name on the signaling group form, then find the C-LAN or IP-PROCR
with the same node name on the ip-interfaces form.
Check for errors against the CLAN-BD MO.
