SLB™ Branch Office Manager User Guide 19
A system administrator, upon losing IP connectivity to a server, takes the following steps:
Views the server’s Ethernet interface state information provided by the SLB
branch office manager.
If the Ethernet interface is faulty, connects to the server’s console port by means
of the SLB web page or CLI (optionally via the SLM management appliance) and
checks the server’s system parameters.
If the server is not responsive on the console port, commands the SLB branch
office manager to reboot the server’s power.
If the entire branch office loses IP connectivity, dial in to the SLB device to
perform the diagnostic functions
