C.5 Troubleshooting Tips
This section lists problems and possible solutions for NetWare.
C.5.1 FastPort does not power up
Check the voltage on the power supply. If it is switchable, set it to the
correct voltage (e.g., 120 VAC for continental USA).
C.5.2 FastPort does not show up in ACT
• Place DIP switch D1 to Off (up) and power cycle the unit.
• Examine the front panel LEDs. The Power and Ethernet LEDs blink in
normal operating mode.
• FastPort uses a Novell Object Identification of 534 (hexadecimal) to
register a file server. If the router is set to filter these SAPs, FastPort will
not appear when using ACT.
• If the Ethernet LED is not blinking, check the transceiver selection on
the back of the unit. Link illuminates green if there is a 10BASE-T
connection; if not, it will be orange.
Note:
After FastPort is rebooted, it take a minutes for it to appear in ACT.
• Force a frame type.
• NetWare may be disabled. Check the diagnostic test page.
C.5.3 FastPort fails POST after upgrading firmware
This could be due to the relocation of the NVRAM. Reset the unit to factory
defaults and try again.
C.5.4 FastPort does not login to bindery Novell 4.x server
Server may not have the bindery emulation mode enabled. Verify that the
bindery emulation is enabled: find the following in the autoexec.ncf file
in the system directory:
Set Bindery Context=<
context
>
where <
context
> is the name of the context to be used by bindery
emulation. If not found, bindery emulation is not running. Refer to
NetWare’s manual for info. on bindery emulation.
