extension
The extension number assigned to the port or other
maintenance object.
The number of digits in an extension is determined
by the system dial plan. The
list
and
display
commands are useful in relating extension numbers,
maintenance objects, and other components.
repeat #
1-100 1 Used with test commands, the number of times a
test sequence is to be repeated. The word
repeat
, or
simply the letter
r
, followed by the number.
short
long
Used with
test
commands, these qualifiers
determine either the long or short test sequence run
for this maintenance object. The test sequence run
varies for each maintenance object.
!
CAUTION:
For some maintenance objects, the long
sequence is destructive, that is, disruptive to
call service.
The short sequence is always non-destructive.
clear
Used with
test
commands, this specifies that the test
sequence is to be repeated until any active alarms
against the maintenance object is cleared by the
passing of tests or until any test in the sequence
fails.
If no such alarms are active, the sequence is run
once. The
long clear
combination effects a clearing
of all alarms against the maintenance object if no
errors are encountered. The
short clear
combination
clears only alarms pertinent to the tests in the short
sequence.
!
CAUTION:
If all tests pass, the long clear combination
clears all error counters. If firmware counters
are cleared while actual problem exists,
customer service may degrade due to calls
being routed over faulty components.
