13. TROUBLESHOOTING
This chapter contains information to help you solve issues that might come up while using the switch.
The Link LED is not lit
Solution: Check the cable connection and remove duplex mode of the Ethernet Switch
Some stations cannot talk to other stations located on the other port
Solution: Please check the VLAN settings, trunk settings, or port enabled / disabled status.
Performance is bad
Solution: Check the full duplex status of the Ethernet Switch. If the Ethernet Switch is set to full duplex and the
partner is set to half duplex, then the performance will be poor. Please also check the in/out rate of the port.
The switch will not connect to a network
Solution: Check the LNK/ACT LED on the switch
Try another port on the Switch
Solution:
Make sure the cable is installed properly
Make sure the cable is the right type
Turn off the power. After a while, turn on power again
100Base-TX port link LED is lit, but the traffic is irregular
Solution: Check that the attached device is not set to dedicate full duplex. Some devices use a physical or software
switch to change duplex modes. Auto-negotiation may not recognize this type of full-duplex setting.
Switch does not power up
Solution: The AC power cord is either not inserted or faulty; check that the AC power cord is inserted correctly and
replace it if necessary. Check that the AC power source is working by connecting a different device in place of the
switch.
