ATMS Reports (List Testcall Command)
The
list testcalls
command produces detailed and summary reports of
measurements made by the Automatic Transmission Measurement System
(ATMS). Measurement reports contain data on trunk signal loss, noise, singing
return loss, and echo return loss, and are used to determine the quality of trunk
lines. The system maintains a database with the results of the last test for each
trunk. System resets clear all transmission test data, and ATMS measurements
are not backed up by the Mass Storage System.
ATMS parameters are administered on page 4 of the trunk group form. These
include thresholds for marginal and unacceptable performance. On the screen
display, measurements that exceed the marginal threshold are highlighted.
Measurements that are exceed the unacceptable level appear flashing,
indicating unusable trunks. Trunk groups can be administered to log errors and
alarms, and busyout the failed trunk in response to such results.
The detailed report lists measurements for each trunk group member. The
summary reports lists trunk groups as a whole. Which measurements are
displayed depends on what type of test, if any, was last run on the trunk, and the
capabilities of the TTL on the switch at the far end of the trunk. See the preceding
description of the
test analog-testcall
command. A blank line indicates that no
test data is available for that trunk or group.
The number of pages of each report is dependent upon the selection criteria and
the number of outgoing trunks in the system. About 10 measurements can be
listed on a page on the administration terminal, or about 50 measurements can
be listed on a printer. By default, reports list all measurements. Filtering can be
used to limit the output. For example, the report can be set up to print only failed
measurements.
The syntax of the command is as follows:
list testcalls detail | summary
[port UUCSSpp]
[grp group#] [to-grpgroup#]
[mem member#] [to-memmember#]
[resultresultID> | not-resultresultID]
[count#] [print | schedule]
Error Code
This numerical code indicates the reason for a failure
or abort. The codes are explained in the CO-TRK and
TIE-TRK sections of
Chapter 9, ‘‘ABRI-PORT (ASAI
ISDN-BRI Port)’’.
