Troubleshooting
This chapter provides several methods for troubleshooting problems related to the
BayStack 21 PCI 10/100 Adapter w/WOL.
Diagnostic LEDs
Three LEDs on the front of the BayStack 21 network card provide diagnostic
information. The 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s Link LEDs indicate successful network
connections to Ethernet and Fast Ethernet devices, respectively. The Link LEDs
remain steady if the connection is stable. You should check the RJ-45 connection
if the LED is not steady. The Activity LED indicates active network traffic.
Table 5-1
describes the Link and Activity LED indications.
