4.2 CHECKING THE CONNECTION

This section provides a checklist for troubleshooting network connection problems.

The LNK LED on the TPIM lights green when there is an established link between the BRIM-T6 and the device at the other end of the media connection. If, however, the LNK LED lights red or is not lighted, a link has not been established. To resolve the problem, try the following procedures:

Check that the host device and the device at the other end of the segment have power.

Check that the TPIM is securely installed in the BRIM-T6 and that the BRIM-T6 is securely installed in the host device.

Check for correct connector-to-port attachments at the BRIM-T6 and the destination device.

Inspect the cabling system (cable and connectors) for damage and replace damaged components.
