Troubleshooting Gateway Configuration
Verifying the Configuration Method
If you have a problem configuring the LAN/GPIB Gateway (such as
configuring the IP address), first verify the method of configuration for the
Gateway. After verifying the configuration method, see the applicable
section in this chapter to troubleshoot the Gateway’s configuration.
1 Check the
LAN Conn LED illumination when the Gateway is
powered on:
2 When the Gateway is powered on, the
LAN Conn LED works
independently, whether or not the Gateway is physically connected
to a network. Temporarily disconnecting the Gateway can be helpful
to see if the Gateway is being configured via Telnet or BOOTP.
Consult your Network Administrator before disconnecting the
Gateway from an active network.
3 If the Gateway is powered on, configured, and has a known valid
IP address, Telnet to the Gateway and check the setting of the
bootp: ON/OFF configuration value to determine the configuration
method used.
CAUTION
Any client operations in progress and client connections will be
terminated by the factory-reset command when it reboots
the Gateway.
