This chapter provides information concerning the following:

• Using the LANVIEW diagnostic and status monitoring system (Section 4.1)

• Troubleshooting network and module operational problems (Section 4.2)

• Using the RESET button (Section 4.3)

4.1 USING LANVIEW

The SmartSwitch modules use Cabletron Systems’ built-in visual diagnostic and status monitoring

system called LANVIEW. The LANVIEW LEDs (Figure 4-1) allow quick observation of the

network status to aid in diagnosing network problems. Refer to Table 4-1 for a description of the

LEDs.

Refer to the HSIM or VHSIM User’s Guide for a description of the HSIM or VHSIM LEDs.

NOTE

The terms flashing, blinking, and solid used in the LED definition tables of this

chapter indicate the following:

Flashing indicates an irregular LED pulse.

Blinking indicates a steady LED pulse, (approximately 50% on, 50% off).

Solid indicates a steady LED light. No pulsing.
