After a design validation, VRC uses color coded indicators to inform you that there is an error in the dial plan design. These indicators appear in the dial plan tree and on the tabs in the user interface.
VRC validation indicators are displayed:
In the dial plan tree - Each entity in the dial plan is color coded to indicate the severity of any errors encountered during validation. A down arrow in the dial plan tree indicates that problems exist with sub-components of that dial plan entity.
On the user interface Attributes tab - The tab displays a color coded symbol (red stop sign or yellow yield sign) to further point you to the source of the dial plan errors.
In the table summary column - When you generate a route report, the validation status of the element is listed at the bottom of the report.
In the Validation Status field - This is usually the last field on the Attributes tab. The validation status field indicates whether the Cisco VRC server can contact the element during the validation process.
