Configuring the Model 281xSA Hub for IP/IPX Networks

4-6

893-743-A

If the error clears, the diagnostics continue and the hub LEDs light as follows:

■

Power LED—on

■

On Line LED—flashing

■

NM Control—LED off

■

Fault LED—off

After completing its diagnostics, the Model 281xSA hub continues
automatically, trying to find the BootP server that has its configuration
parameters. Figure 4-3 shows an example of the service port screen during a
BootP sequence.

To stop the automatic process and access the Model 281xSA boot configuration
menus, press

[Ctrl]+C. See “Setting the Boot Configuration without a BootP

Server” later in this chapter.
