Nortel Networks 1750 manual Verifying a successful installation

Chapter 1 Cables and power 25

3Press and release the power switch on the rear of the VPN Router 1750, and wait for the gateway to start.

Verifying a successful installation

After you connect the gateway to the power source and turn it on, you can verify a successful installation by checking the light emitting diodes (LED) on the front panel. For more information, see “Front panel LEDs” on page 26.

The following sequence of LEDs occurs:

1The power LED (the Nortel logo) lights blue.

2The Alert LED lights red and the Boot/Ready LED lights green.

3When the gateway begins the boot sequence, the Boot/Ready LED lights yellow and the Alert LED turns off.

4After the boot process is complete, the Boot/Ready LED lights green, which indicates that the gateway is operational.

5The Alert LED lights yellow because the gateway is not configured.

For a newly installed VPN Router 1750, a yellow Alert LED does not indicate an alarm condition. After you configure the gateway, the Alert LED turns off. For more information, see Chapter 4, “Management IP interface configuration,” on page 61.

If the LEDs on the front panel light in the preceding sequence, the installation is successful. If the LEDs do not light in the preceding sequence, check that you correctly installed the bezel on the gateway and that you properly attached the power cord to the power supply. For more information, see “Connecting the power cord” on page 24.

If the VPN Router 1750 still does not start, contact your local Nortel Technical Solutions Center. For more information, see “How to get help” on page 15.
