Verifying Connections and Setup

Check the modem, DSX, Ethernet, DTE, and PVC connections, as well as the ISDN DBM setup if a DBM is installed.

Checking the Modem Connection

Procedure

If Port Use is set to Terminal (dial-in access):

1.Dial the modem’s phone number using a remote asynchronous terminal or PC.

2.Verify that the Main Menu appears.

If Port Use is set to Net Link (SNMP, Telnet, FTP, and trap dial-out):

1.Dial the modem’s phone number using a PC running PPP or SLIP link protocol.

2.From the PC, run an IP Ping test to the modem interface.

If your results using either method are unsuccessful, make sure both ends of the modem cable are properly seated and secured. Then, verify that the modem was configured correctly (see Setting Up the Modem on page 14). Otherwise, refer to the status information in Operation and Maintenance of the User’s Guide.

Checking the DSX Connection

Procedure

1.Verify that the DSX signal (SIG) LED is green, and that the DSX out-of-frame (OOF) and alarm (ALM) LEDs are off. If so, the DSX interface is set up correctly and is operational. If not, make sure both ends of the DSX cable are properly seated.

When ALM is on, contact the service provider.

2.Check Health and Status messages in the left column of the System and Test Status screen.

Main Menu → Status → System and Test Status

If any DSX-1 messages appear, refer to the status information in Operation and Maintenance of the User’s Guide.

Checking the Ethernet Connection

Check Health and Status messages in the left column of the System and Test Status screen to verify that there are no Ethernet-related Health and Status messages.

Main Menu → Status → System and Test Status

If the Ethernet Link Down message appears, make sure both ends of the Ethernet cable are properly seated.
