Bridge Initialization
BRIDGE INITIALIZATION
Problem:
The system does not display the following bridge initialization messages:
LAN Port <port #> is now in the LISTENING state
LAN Port <port #> is now in the LEARNING state
LAN Port <port #> is now in the FORWARDING state
Action:
1. Make sure the LAN Adapter has initialized correctly.
2. Check the configuration to verify the bridge is enabled.
IP ROUTING INITIALIZATION
Problem:
The system does not display the expected IP routing initialization messages.
Action:
1. If you did not see the following IP message:
[IP] IP router is initialized successfully
Check the configuration to verify that IP routing is enabled.
2. The failure to see the following IP message for each IP interface:
[IP] Network initialized successfully on ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd
indicates that you may have either not configured a needed interface or have incorrectly
configured an interface. Check the system’s IP network interface configuration using the
ipnetif
command (a Manage Mode command). If there is a problem with the configuration,
use the
CFGEDIT
to make corrections.
WAN LINE AVAILABILITY
Problem:
The system does not display the WAN line availability messages. Instead, the system displays the
following message after the
status
console command is issued:
Line (slot #, port #) down
Action:
1. Verify that the line is correctly attached to the proper system resource and port.
2. If the line was correctly attached in action 1, try restarting the system.
3. If actions 1 and 2 fail to correct the problem, call your phone company (carrier) to check the
status of the line.
