3. Verify that a link exists by checking that the port RX LED is on
(flashing amber, blinking green, or solid green). If the RX LED is off
and the TX LED is not blinking amber, perform the following steps
until the RX LED is on:
a. Verify that the 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX device at the other end
of the twisted pair segment is powered up.
b. Verify that the RJ45 connector on the twisted pair segment has the
proper pinouts.
c. Check the cable for continuity.
d. Make sure that the twisted pair connection meets the cable
specifications outlined in the Cabletron Systems Cabling Guide.
e. Confirm that the crossover switch is in the correct position.
f. To manage the connected port, see Section 5.11.
