■
Check that the switch is passing the correct DNS information to hosts on
the LAN, if the switch is a DHCP server. If the switch acting as a DHCP
client as well, and therefore is passing on DNS information from another
DHCP server, check that this DHCP server is providing the switch with the
correct information.
IP Addresses and DHCP
Problem
The switch is enabled as a DHCP server, but cannot assign an IP address to a
host.
Solution
■
Reboot the host machine.
■
Check the host’s TCP/IP settings, to make sure that the host is set to obtain
its IP address dynamically:
In Windows 95/98, click Settings > Control Panel > Network. Select TCP/
IP and click Properties. Click
Obtain an IP address automatically .
In Windows 2000, click Settings > Control Panel > Network and Dial-up
Connections > Local Area Connection > Properties. Select Internet
connection (TCP/IP) and click Properties. Click
Obtain an IP address
automatically .
■
Check that the switch’s link to the LAN is functioning, by checking the
interface status (Monitoring) and that the link LED is lit (see “
Traffic Flow ”
on page 41).
Time and NTP
Diagnosis The switch’s time is displayed on the Configuration > System > Time tab. It
will also be included in log packets.
Problem The switch’s time does not change, even though you entered the correct time.
Solution Changing the time is a 3-step process. Select Configuration > System > Time.
First, enter a time that is very shortly in the future (e.g. 20 seconds later than
the current time). Then check
Set time . Then wait until precisely the time you
have entered, and click Apply.
Problem
The switch is not assigning the time to devices on the LAN.
Solutions
■
Check NTP is enabled (Configuration > System > Time).
■
Check that the NTP peer’s IP address is entered correctly.
■
Check that the NTP peer can reach the switch, by pinging the switch from
the NTP peer.
■
Check that the switch’s link to the LAN is functioning. See “ Traffic Flow ” on
page 41.
Problem
The switch’s clock does not synchronise with the NTP peer.
Solution
■
The switch’s clock can only synchronise with the NTP peer if its initial time
is similar to the NTP peer’s time (after setting the UTC offset). Manually
set the switch’s time so that it is approximately correct, and enable NTP
again.
■
Check that the UTC offset is correct.
