6.2.3 Configuration Check
[ Diagnostics > System > Configuration Check ]
The device lets you compare the settings in the device with the settings in its neighboring devices.
For this purpose, the device uses the information that it received from its neighboring devices
through topology recognition (LLDP).
The dialog lists the deviations detected, which affect the performance of the communication
between the device and the recognized neighboring devices.
You update the content of the table by clicking the button. When the table remains empty, the
configuration check was successful and the settings in the device are compatible with the settings
in the detected neighboring devices.
If you have set up more than 39 VLANs in the device, then the dialog constantly displays a warning.
The reason is the limited number of possible VLAN data sets in LLDP packets with a maximum
length. The device compares the first 39 VLANs automatically. If you have set up 40 or more
VLANs in the device, then check the congruence of the further VLANs manually, if necessary.
Note:
A neighboring device without LLDP support, which forwards LLDP packets, can be the cause
of equivocal messages in the dialog. This occurs if the neighboring device is a hub or a switch
without management, which ignores the IEEE 802.1D-2004 standard. In this case, the dialog
displays the devices recognized and connected to the neighboring device as connected to the
device itself, even though they are connected to the neighboring device.
Summary
You also find this information when you position the mouse pointer over the button in the
Toolbar in the top part of the Navigation area.
Error
Displays the number of errors that the device detected during the configuration check.
Warning
Displays the number of warnings that the device detected during the configuration check.
Information
Displays the amount of information that the device detected during the configuration check.
Table
When you highlight a row in the table, the device displays additional information in the area beneath
it.
ID
Displays the rule ID of the deviations having occurred. The dialog combines several deviations with
the same rule ID under one rule ID.
