Troubleshooting Management Connections

If a serial connection does not occur, cycle power by
removing the power cord, waiting for approximately 5
seconds, and then reinstalling the power cord. In addition,
check the terminal session’s serial port parameters or
replace the serial cable. (Make sure it is a null modem
cable, preferably the cable that shipped with the switch.)

If the Ethernet activity LED is on, make sure you are using
a cross-over Ethernet cable (unless using an Ethernet
hub), or check the IP addresses on the switch and
workstation as follows:

At a command line prompt, type 

ping

 

DNSorIP (where

DNSorIP is the switch’s DNS name or IP address) and
press E

NTER

.

If a 

“Reply from…” or “...is alive...” message appears, the

devices can communicate.

If a 

“Request timed out” message appears (or the

command times out), the devices cannot communicate.
Trace the cabling. If needed, reconnect the devices.
