3. System Status LED changes to an alarm state, blinking amber for S3048–ON, S6100–ON and Z9100–ON, and solid amber for C9000.
It is not possible to suppress this LED pattern until the unit is switched off (for RMA).
4. The switch (control/management/data plane) continues to be active.
NOTE: This is true even if the unit is the master (in a HA chassis environment – as in the case of RPM) or a Stack
master or standby (as in case of S3048-ON).
LBQA (LPC Bus Quality Analyzer) Failure Detection mode
The following functions are performed as a part of this mode:
1. The LBQA will be started as part of FTOS application init (typically as a poller in sysd).
2. The LBQA will run as a fast poller (typically 1 sec) in failure detection mode.
3. During every fast poll cycle, LBQA will be the first poller to run.
4. In failure detection mode, the LBQA will issue a single IOCTL for each poll interval, which may in-turn issue multiple LPC operations
(write & read-back) to check the sanity of the LPC bus using the scratch register.
5. The LBQA will use an extended walking 1s/0s test along with a pattern based test (0x00, 0x55, 0xAA, 0xFF) that is staggered across
several polls.
6. The LBQA will limit each sanity check to a maximum of 16 operations (read + write).
7. LBQA will use a variable number of sanity checks over time, it would perform at least 1 check during every poll interval but will perform
8 checks during a signal poll once in 5 seconds.
8. The LBQA can be disabled on a system wide basis (i.e all stack-units or line cards as applicable) through a CLI command.
Restoring the Factory Default Settings
Restoring the factory-default settings deletes the existing NVRAM settings, startup configuration, and all configured settings such as,
stacking or fanout.
To restore the factory default settings, use the restore factory-defaults stack-unit {stack—unit—number | all}
{clear-all | nvram | bootvar} command in EXEC Privilege mode.
CAUTION:
There is no undo for this command.
Important Points to Remember
• When you restore all the units in a stack, these units are placed in standalone mode.
• When you restore a single unit in a stack, only that unit is placed in standalone mode. No other units in the stack are affected.
• When you restore the units in standalone mode, the units remain in standalone mode after the restoration.
• After the restore is complete, the units power cycle immediately.
The following example illustrates the restore factory-defaults command to restore the factory default settings.
