For information about solving problems when managing the Switch, refer
to the Problem Solving chapter in the “SuperStack II Switch Management
Guide” (DUA1695-0BAA0x).
Managing the
Switch
The Switch contains software that allows you to change and monitor the
way it works. This
management software
is not required to get the
Switch working, but if you do use it, you may improve the efficiency of
the Switch and therefore improve the overall performance of your
network. For information on managing the Switch using the
management software, refer to the “SuperStack II Switch Management
Guide” (part number DUA1695-0BAA0x).
A link is connected and
yet the Status LED for
the port does not light
Check that:
All connections are secure.
The devices at both ends of the link are powered-up.
The connection uses cross-over cable if you are
linking a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX port with a device
that is MDIX-only.
The Packet LED for a
10BASE-T port is lit,
but the Status LED for
that port does not
light
The 10BASE-T port is connected to a
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port or a 100BASE-TX port. Do
one of the following:
If the 10BASE-T port is connected to a
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port, enable auto-negotiation
on the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port, or set the
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port to 10Mbps.
If the 10BASE-T port is connected to a 100BASE-TX
port, move the 10BASE-T connection to a
100BASE-TX connection.
