CRC Error Counter Test (#623)
This test is nondestructive.
This test reads the BRI port’s CRC error counters that are maintained on the BRI circuit pack. 
The Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) is a means of error detection used to determine the 
integrity of data frame contents. The CRC error counter is incremented by the circuit pack when 
it detects a CRC error. The test passes if the value of the counter is 0 (that is, the error is 
cleared). If the counter is non-zero, the test fails, and the value of the counter is displayed in the 
Error Code field.
Receive FIFO Overflow Error 
Counter Test (#625)
This test is nondestructive.
This test reads and clears the BRI port’s Receive FIFO Overflow error counter maintained on 
the TBRI-BD circuit pack. This counter is incremented by the circuit pack when it detects an 
overflow of its receive buffers. The test passes if the value of the counter is 0 (that is, the error is 
cleared). If the counter is non-zero, the test fails, and the value of the counter is displayed in the 
Error Code field. This error can occur either if:
Signaling frames are being received from the Packet bus at a rate sufficient to overflow the 
receive buffers on the circuit pack for a port
A hardware fault is causing the receive buffers not to be emptied properly by the circuit 
pack.
This test is useful for verifying the repair of the problem.

Result
Description / Recommendation
ANY
FAIL
This error occurs when a frame with a bad CRC is received over the 
D channel by the BRI board. This error is reported on a per-port basis when 
the counter goes over the threshold. This error is most likely due to a 
problem with the wiring or interference on the wiring caused by a noise 
source or no termination. It usually does not indicate a problem with the 
circuit pack.
PASS
The CRC error counter was read correctly and has a value of 0.
