Checking Hub Connections
When you have connected your hubs, power them
on. The Port Status LEDs for the ports you have used
should be green for 10BASE-T, or off for 10BASE-2
(Coax). If they are not, check your connections
.
If the 10BASE-2 (Coax) port is not used and is not
terminated, the LED should be yellow showing that it
has partitioned. This is correct operation.

pot Checks
At frequent intervals, visually check that:
■
The Alert LED is not lit — this is the best way to find
out if there are problems with your network
■
Case vents are not obstructed
■
Cabling is secure and not pulled taut
If you suspect there is a problem, refer to
Chapter 6
