How to check for PFC3 failure?

[Samuel8rown]

I've been wrestling with setting up an ACL on a Sup720 card. It fails every time port number enter the equation. I've tried any number of variations on the ACL commands, all of which look like a textbook example of ACLs from the command reference docs. At this point I'm starting to think that I've got a faulty PFC3 card.

What commands would you use, other than good old "show module" to take a closer look at the Sup720's hardware? Can you think of another reason why firewall rules with layer 4 information would skip being checked?

To check for any possible hardware issues set the diagnostic level to complete and then reset the card. To set the bootup diagnostic level, use the diagnostic bootup level command. Use the no form of this command to skip all diagnostic tests.
