Ah, great suggestion, but it's not the 889 days thing (uptime is only 17 
weeks). That said, this does remind me again that the ASRs are sometimes 
finicky about interfaces going down and require the occasional reboot to fix. 
The only reason I'm shying away from the ASR as the problem is because lots of 
interfaces on the ASR went down due to customers connected to it losing power 
at the same time and this is the only interface that hasn't come back up. 
Possibly poor reasoning on my part because I should know by now that the most 
important interface on the router is the one most likely to have a problem and 
not work because that's how this miserable world works.

I guess I'm hoping someone can point me to internal counters on either device 
that might show how far the packet is getting as it traverses the fabric. I 
just don't know enough about the hardware counters to know what to look at.

    Maybe it’s not the NCS?  If your ASR920 was unaffected by the power event, 
and it’s been up for 889 days, is it possible you’re seeing this?

in an earlier thread. I have this router connected directly to an ASR920-24 via 
10G port, both using the same optics, 10G-LR. Between the two, running IPv4 and 
IPv6, IS-IS and LDP. As mentioned, we had an unexpected reload due to power 
issues at the site on Wednesday and once the NCS rebooted, the link between the 
two routers came up, but is not passing traffic anymore. There are other 
interfaces on the NCS that are working just fine with the same original config 
and no config changes happened upon reload to affect things.

as routed interfaces to simplify everything, as they were previously set up as 
trunk interfaces. No ACLs are on either side, no immediately visible errors on 
either side and no other interfaces are experiencing this behavior.  Again, the 
physical link is up and DOM shows fine RX levels on either side. I’d like to 
avoid rebooting the entire router, but maybe that’s my only option. Are there 
any debugging options, logs or platform counters I can look at to see a bit 
deeper under the hood, so to speak, to try and narrow down why this link that 
is up is not able to pass traffic? Interface configs below, but are just dead 
simple (changing to mask to /30 doesn’t do anything, either):
