Troubleshooting

Autonegotiation Modes

Port connection problems can occur when a port is connected to a station that is not operating in a compatible mode (for example, connecting a full-duplex port to

ahalf-duplex port). The BayStack 410-24T switch negotiates port speeds according to the IEEE 802.3u autonegotiating standard. The switch adjusts (autonegotiates) the port speed and duplex mode to match the best service provided by the connected station, up to 100 Mb/s in full-duplex mode with an optional 100BASE-T MDA installed.

•If the connected station uses a form of autonegotiation that is not compatible with the IEEE 802.3u autonegotiating standard, the BayStack 410-24T switch cannot negotiate a compatible mode for correct operation.

•If the autonegotiation feature is not present or not enabled at the connected station, the BayStack 410-24T switch may not be able to determine the correct duplex mode.

In both situations, the BayStack 410-24T switch “autosenses” the speed of the connected station and, by default, reverts to half-duplex mode. If the connected station is operating in full-duplex mode, it cannot communicate with the switch.

To correct this mode mismatch problem:

1.Use the Port Configuration screen to disable autonegotiation for the suspect port (see “Port Configuration” on page 3-53).

2.Manually set the Speed/Duplex field to match the speed/duplex mode of the connected station (see Table 3-19 on page 3-54).

You may have to try several settings before you find the correct speed/duplex mode of the connected station.

If the problem persists:

1.Disable the autonegotiation feature at the connected station.

2.Manually set the speed/duplex mode of the connected station to the same speed/duplex mode you have manually set for the BayStack 410-24Tswitch port.

Port Interface

Ensure that the devices are connected using the appropriate crossover or straight-through cable (see Appendix D, “Connectors and Pin Assignments”).
