Troubleshooting
Legacy Link Card
Installation
If you encounter problems with a Legacy Link Card, try checking the
following items:
■
Is the NBX system functioning properly? See the NBX documentation.
■
Are the RJ21x and 48V external power connectors firmly seated into
their front-panel connectors? Is the power indicator on the external
power supply lit?
■
Are the card LED indications correct?
■
Check the basics: swap out the phone, check the handset cable, the
base cable, and so forth.
■
Check that the Legacy Link Card license is installed on the NBX
system. This can be found within the NBX NetSet utility in the
Operations > Licenses screen as the
Citel Analog Phone License
.
■
Check that the Auto Discover Other Devices feature is enabled on the
NBX system. (
System-wide Settings > Auto Discovery.)
■
Review the FAQs and Release Notes listed at 3Com Partner Access
web site.
■
If you are using Standard IP or IP on the Fly on your NBX system, be
sure you have used the GWconfig utility to assign an IP address to
your Legacy Link Card.
If a problem still exists after working through the checklist, contact your
distributor for advice and further support.
