Avaya AP-4, AP-6, AP-5 manual Recovery Procedures, Overload Indications

Recovery Procedures

4.Try to connect a different device to the same port on the PoE hub – if it works and a link is established, there is probably a faulty data link in the AP.

5.Try to re-connect the AP to a different output port (remember to move the input port accordingly) – if it works, there is probably a faulty output or input port in the PoE hub or a bad RJ-45 connection.

“Overload” Indications

1.Verify that you are not using a cross-over cable between the PoE output port and the AP.

2.Verify that there is no short over any of the twisted pair cables.

3.Move the device into a different output port – if it works, there is probably a faulty port or bad RJ-45 connection.

Recovery Procedures

The most common installation problems relate to IP addressing. For example, without the TFTP server IP Address, you will not be able to download a new AP Image to the AP. IP Address management is fundamental. We suggest you create a chart to document and validate the IP addresses for your system.
