Using the BayStack 420 10/100/1000 Switch

Chapter 4
Troubleshooting

This chapter describes how to isolate and diagnose problems with your BayStack
420 Switch and covers the following topics:

“Interpreting the LEDs

,” next

“Diagnosing and correcting problems” on page 175

— Normal power-up sequence

— Port connection problems

The chapter topics lead you through a logical process for troubleshooting the
BayStack 420 Switch. For example, because LEDs provide visual indications
of certain problems, see

“Interpreting the LEDs” on page 173

to understand the

various states (

Table 42

) that your switch LEDs can exhibit during normal

operation.

For more help in determining the problem,

“Diagnosing and correcting problems”

on page 175

describes symptoms and corrective actions (

Table 43

) you can

perform to resolve specific problems. Subsequent sections give step-by-step
procedures to correct the problems.
