Debugging
With traffic commands, use the
–d
option, which displays the
BCM.0>
shell. To check counters and if the link is up, use the
ps
and
show c
commands.
nvramtool
To read and write the NVRAM bits, use the
nvramtool
. The BIOS uses the NVRAM bits to control testing. The EDA tools also
use the NVRAM bits.
The NVRAM is an area, usually in a battery backed-up device such as an RTC chip. The NVRAM bits do not change across
reboots or power cycles. These bits control how devices boot and how the system performs tests. The
nvramtool
controls
both the BIOS and EDA for testing. The bits are not common across platforms and are defined in the configuration file. When
using this tool, you must write the correct bits because the tool does not know the register details it is writing. The
nvramtool
displays the bit-level detail in the NVRAM registers, depending on how you define it in the configuration file.
Tests
There are no tests of the NVRAM. This tool only controls the bits.
