Alarms & troubleshooting

OPT_LOS (Optical RX Loss of Signal)
Port LINK LED Off, ALM LED solid Red
Optical fiber cut, excessive bend radius, loose connector, or remote transmitter failure
1. Verify patch cord connection at the ODF and re-seat the optical connector. 2. Measure incoming optical power with an optical power meter against receiver sensitivity. 3. Clean optical ferrule with a dedicated cleaning pen; replace the SFP module if fault persists.
FAB_SERDES_CRC (Fabric SERDES Link CRC Errors Over Threshold)
RUN LED fast flashing Green, ALM LED solid Amber
Backplane high-speed connector oxidation/bent pins, slot dust contamination, or SerDes PHY impedance degradation
1. Run CLI command 'show fabric serdes error' to identify specific degraded SerDes lanes. 2. Reseat the FS0 fabric board; inspect and clean backplane pins using compressed dry air. 3. Firmly seat and latch the board; if CRC error count continues to increment, replace the FS0 board.
SFP_BIAS_HIGH (Transceiver Laser Bias Current High)
Port LED solid Amber, Board ALM LED slow flashing Amber
Laser diode aging, transmitter driver circuit degradation, or prolonged exposure to high operating temperature
1. Query DDM parameters using 'show optical-transceiver detail' to log bias current and TX power. 2. Check chassis ventilation and ensure ambient intake temperature is within specification. 3. Schedule a maintenance window to proactively replace the degraded SFP transceiver.
BOARD_OVERTEMP (Fabric Board Over-Temperature)
ALM LED solid Red, RUN LED slow flashing Green
Chassis air filter clogged, fan tray failure or fan speed control fault, or equipment room HVAC failure
1. Inspect chassis air filters immediately; clean or replace dusty filter sub-assemblies. 2. Verify fan tray operating state via NMS/CLI; confirm fans ramp to maximum speed; replace faulty fan unit. 3. Check telecom room HVAC systems to maintain ambient intake temperature below 45°C.
PORT_FLAPPING (Port Optical Link Flapping)
Port LED rapidly toggling Green/Amber, ALM LED solid Amber
Marginal RX optical power hovering near threshold, contaminated optical ferrule, loose SFP latch, or clock slip
1. Check RX power stability; eliminate marginal attenuation issues by adjusting optical budget or replacing jumper. 2. Inspect fiber end-face with a fiber microscope, clean thoroughly, and firmly re-engage SFP cage latch. 3. Swap transceiver into an alternate port or replace SFP module; monitor link stability for at least 15 minutes.
