Troubleshooting Approaches
Check the network cables Cabling problems are a frequent cause of
network faults. Check the cables for damage, correct type, and proper
connections. You should also use a cable tester to check your cables for
compliance to the relevant IEEE 802.3 specification. See the Installation
Guide shipped with the switch for correct cable types and connector pin-
outs.
