chapter. See “Console Connection” in chapter 2 for details on connecting to the console
port. See chapter 3, “Operation”, for details on the console commands.
This chapter describes these topics:
basic troubleshooting tips
diagnosing with the LEDs
diagnostic tests:
– testing the hub only
– testing the hub’s ports and the links
– testing twisted-pair cabling
Basic Troubleshooting Tips
Make sure that you have a valid network topology. If you have trouble after a
recent change to the network, switch back to the previous topology. If you no
longer have trouble, the new topology is probably at fault. Topology faults may be
due to excessive cable lengths or excessive repeater delays between nodes. For
configuration guidelines, see the HP EtherTwist Technical Reference Guide
(part number 5091-3237E).
Make sure that the hub is plugged in and that cable connections are secure.
If the ThinLAN port is being used, make sure that the port is properly
terminated. See “ThinLAN Port Connection” in chapter 2.
