I really can't comment on the controllers output. Not sure how to interpret
the results. Have you started a TAC case? They usually can give some
insight. I'm assuming that you have replaced the cable from the carrier's
dmarc to your equipment if you're onsite today.

Concerning the "intrusive test" you mentioned at the bottom of your email,
sounds like the carrier just did a remote test from their CO to your
SmartJack. I'd keep demanding a LEC dispatch - don't be afraid to expedite
your request. Until the carrier can prove through their dmarc, I wouldn't be
satisfied. A typical remote test can only test up through the card in the
SmartJack, the remote test can't verify through to the RJ-45 port which is
after the card in the SmartJack. The female RJ-45 port is where the real
demarcation between the carrier and your equipment is typically defined.

Good luck!

  here is the sh controllers output after I have just reseated the card and
reload the 3825. Teloc is dragging there feet and did not finish their
testing yet!

  What are the errors that are telling from this output?

  Thanks!
  Yes, they said it was to the smart jack an "intrusive test" It was down
completely for 30 minutes... I know that carriers can be difficult, but they
are the ones who basically handle these MPLS routers for my company..
  (even though I have been responsible for the last 3 fixes on these
routers...: ) Thanks to GS etc.....

  I appreciate the information and I am about to go and power cycle the router
and reseat the card b/c I have nothing left to try at this point....

  Wish me luck..

    Hi William,

    When you write the carrier claimed the 'circuit is clean', how did they
    test? Was a LEC tech dispatched to the site, unplugged your cable from
the
    dmarc, their equipment plugged into the dmarc, and they ran tests back
    through their network? Yes, their test will take down your circuit, but
    sometimes it's the only way to have the carrier prove their connection
(and
    even that is suspect).

    The config/output looks normal (except for the glaring CRCs). Having a
    smartnet replacement card issued shouldn't be that hard to request from
    Cisco. Especially if you mention the carrier proved their network was ok.

    Having worked as representing the customer to telco's for years though,
    80-90% of the issues are typically carrier related. So, unless the
    carrier's performed the test above, (typically called a 'head-to-head
    test'), I'd still be twisting the carrier's arm.

    Thinking outside the box, I live in the DC area. We haven't had any
major
    T-storms come through here (yet), so I don't think something got zapped.

    Good luck and hope this helps (ATM can be a b*tch to prove to a carrier
    sometimes),

    Subject: OT ATM card issues

    Hello guys (girls)

    I have been thinking that the telcos circuit was the ATM issue when now
the
    telco has told me it is clean. IT is a DS3 and I started having issues
with
    it just this morning. It is dropping about 8 - 10 % of the traffic on
the
    ATM interface. Telco says the circuit is clean. The cable has been
checked
    but not replaced (yet) don't have an available cable for it. I am
thinking
    I might need to smartnet a new card for it. I have a lack of experience
    with the ATM and if something seems obvious to you about the ROUTER please
    reply. No changes have been made to the confioguration in weeks btw.
    I will be traveling out to the DC to physically take a look here in a bit
    and could use some advice if you have it!
