Basic Functions
After you turn on power to the firewall, the following sequence of events should occur:
1. When power is first applied, verify that the PWR LED is on.
2. After approximately 60 to 90 seconds, verify that:
a.
The TEST LED is not lit.
b. The LAN port LEDs are lit for any local ports that are connected.
c.
The Internet port LED is lit.
If a port’s LED is lit, a link has been established to the connected device. If a LAN port is
connected to a 100 Mbps device, verify that the port’s 100 Mbps LED is green. If the port is
connected to a 10 Mbps device, the 10 Mbps LED will be green.
If any of these conditions does not occur, refer to the appropriate following section.
