2 If the unit does not pass the self-test, the LED displays stop at the detected error condition/test sector.
If this occurs, reset the hub by depressing the recessed reset button using any pen-like instrument. If the self-test fails again, the unit has a hardware malfunction. In this case, note which LEDs are lit during the pause, and call Asanté Technical Support.
3 After the self-test is passed, the LEDs assume normal status. For a stand-alone hub, the PWR LED (green) is on and the SNMP and CPU LED is blinking. See “AsantéBridge 1012 Front Panel” on page 1-6 for the location of these LEDs.
Pretesting the Link Connection
1 Connect an RJ-45 extension cable between front panel port #1 and the Ethernet interface port on a device config- ured with Ethernet hardware and software.You can see the front panel LEDs respond to the connection.
The LINK/RECEIVE LED corresponding to port #1 turns on. If the device is sending unacceptable packets, the Parti- tion LED for that port may also blink, indicating that the hub has autopartitioned the port.The PWR and SNMP and CPU LEDs remain on and blink.
