| Note: If the property does not | |
| have an IT staff, or is unable or | |
| unwilling to assist, a technician | |

| Switch−to−switch and router−to−computer | |
Note 1: | connections require a crossover cable. | |
| Switch−to−computer connections require a | |
| straight−through cable. | |
|
| |
Caution: | If you replace switches or move cables, return the | |
same cables to the exact same port. If you do not, | ||
| ||
| the port map is invalidated. | |
|
| |
| The resolution to this problem could require a | |
| technician on site to perform troubleshooting. | |
Note 2: | Check the network diagram in order to determine | |
which, if any, switches are downstream of the | ||
| ||
| suspected switch. | |
| It is possible that the network diagram does not | |
| reflect recent changes. | |
