Implementation of Stack Health in the P330 Family
When activating the Stack Health feature, the agents in all modules start sending

When the Redundant Cable is present, the user is prompted to disconnect one
of the short Octaplane cables and the redundant connection will be checked.
Then, when prompted, the cable should be reconnected and the test will run a

The stack is reset after the Stack Health process completes.
Note:
You should not load the stack with traffic during this test.
Note:
If the stack health process fails, try to fasten or replace the stack cable between
the modules where the failure has occurred. If the problem persists, try to fasten or
