Why does NPort Server Lite Manager indicate an “Unauthorized” status for some of the NPort Server Lite device server’s ports?
This means that NPort Server Lite’s Access Control list does not associate your host’s IP address with those ports. This situation can come about in one of two ways:
1.Your Windows machine is just one of the hosts sharing the ports on the selected device server, and you did not input the device server’s password while installing NPort Server Lite.
2.You installed NPort Server Lite at a local site, with no access problems, but later move the device server to a remote site and connect through a WAN. Due to this different network connection, your host’s IP address might have changed, and as a result, your host’s IP address is no longer on the device server’s Access Control List.
To solve this problem:
1.Determine your NPort Server Lite’s current IP address. You can read the IP address directly from the LCD display on NPort Server Lite’s top panel.
2.Ask the administrator to add the current IP address to NPort Server Lite’s Access Control list.
Why does NPort Server Lite Manager show a question mark (?) on top of a server icon, making it impossible to enter server properties?
This means that the host cannot find the server. Here are some steps you can take to recover from this problem:
If the host and server are in the same location:
1.Make sure NPort Server Lite’s power cable is plugged in, and the server is receiving power.
2.Check that the server’s network connector is plugged in properly.
3.Make sure your computer is properly connected to the network.
