Ensure that cable distances and other physical aspects of the
installation comply with recommendations. (See “Making
Network Connections” in Chapter 3.)
Management Interface
Terminal Emulation
If the terminal attached to the console port is not operating
properly, check that:
1. the attached terminal or terminal emulator is set to VT100
2. you are using the correct cable type (See Chapter 4,
“Configuration and Management”) and that it is properly
connected.
3. the console is configured properly (8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no
parity and 9600 or 19200 bps).
4. if you are using terminal emulation, there are no IRQ
conflicts.(i.e., Make sure device drivers are not using the
same IRQ required to run the COM port).
Telnet
If you have trouble establishing a link to the System
Configuration Program using Telnet:
1. Check to make sure the network connection is valid.
2. Verify that the correct IP address for the switch has been
entered at the Telnet location.
3. Make sure the port on the switch through which you are
trying to establish a Telnet connection is enabled. (See
Chapter 4, “Configuration and Management”)
4. Check the cabling between the Telnet site and the switch.
