Execute an IPL

5-3

Using Maintenance Features

Figure 5-1 IPL Confirmation Dialog Box

2. Click Yes.

Selecting IPL from the Maintenance menu causes Ethernet connection

between the switch and EFC Server to drop momentarily and the

following to occur in the Product Manager window:

• As the network connection drops, the switch Status table on the

Hardware View turns yellow.

• The Status field in the table displays “No Link” and the State field

displays the reason for no link.

• A grey square displays in the status bar. Refer to Table 1-1 on

page 1-32 for an explanation of this status bar display.

• The FRUs illustrated in the Hardware View do not display. They

display again as the connection is re-established.

An IPL initiates the following functions in the switch:

• Restarts the operational firmware on the CTP card, executes

abbreviated power on system tests (POSTs) and then, if no POST

errors are encountered, the switch resumes the active role that it

had before the IPL.

• Resets the Ethernet interface on the CTP card, causing the

connection to the EFC Server to drop momentarily. The status

icon for the switch in the Product View will change to a gray

square until the connection is reestablished.

• Stops normal switching functions for ports (functions resume

after the IPL).
