Troubleshooting
This chapter provides information concerning the following:
• Using the LANVIEW diagnostic and status monitoring system (Section 4.1)
• Troubleshooting network and module operational problems (Section 4.2)
• Using the RESET button (Section 4.3)
4.1 USING LANVIEW
The SmartSwitch modules use Cabletron Systems’ built-in visual diagnostic and status monitoring
system called LANVIEW. The LANVIEW LEDs (Figure 4-1) allow quick observation of the
network status to aid in diagnosing network problems. Refer to Table 4-1 for a description of the
LEDs.
Refer to the HSIM or VHSIM User’s Guide for a description of the HSIM or VHSIM LEDs.
NOTE
The terms flashing, blinking, and solid used in the LED definition tables of this
chapter indicate the following:
Flashing indicates an irregular LED pulse.
Blinking indicates a steady LED pulse, (approximately 50% on, 50% off).
Solid indicates a steady LED light. No pulsing.
