Verifying the Configuration Method
If you have a problem configuring the LAN/GPIB Gateway (such as configuring the IP address), first verify the method of configuration for the Gateway. After verifying the configuration method, see the applicable section in this chapter to troubleshoot the Gateway’s configuration.
1Check the LAN Conn LED illumination when the Gateway is powered on:
LAN Conn LED | Description |
Operation |
|
|
|
Fast Flash | Attempting BOOTP or BOOTP with TFTP configuration. |
|
|
Slow Flash | Temporarily using the default IP address of 192.0.0.192. |
|
|
Off | Has a valid IP address and is configured. Could be from a |
| valid BOOTP server response or has been configured via |
| Telnet. |
|
|
On | Has a valid IP address and a client is connected to it. |
|
|
2When the Gateway is powered on, the LAN Conn LED works independently, whether or not the Gateway is physically connected to a network. Temporarily disconnecting the Gateway can be helpful to see if the Gateway is being configured via Telnet or BOOTP. Consult your Network Administrator before disconnecting the Gateway from an active network.
3If the Gateway is powered on, configured, and has a known valid IP address, Telnet to the Gateway and check the setting of the bootp: ON/OFF configuration value to determine the configuration method used.
