5 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting This chapter describes how to troubleshoot your switch. This document describes troubleshooting mostly from a hardware perspective. You can perform more in-depth troubleshooting on the switch using the software tools available with the switch, including the full-featured console interface, the built-in web browser interface, and ProCurve Manager, the SNMP-based network management tool.
Troubleshooting Basic Troubleshooting Tips Troubleshooting Basic Troubleshooting Tips Most problems are caused by the following situations. Check for these items first when starting your troubleshooting: ■ Connecting to devices that have a fixed full-duplex configuration. The RJ-45 ports are configured as “Auto”.
Troubleshooting Basic Troubleshooting Tips For your switch, if you wish to build redundant paths between important nodes in your network to provide some fault tolerance, you should enable Spanning Tree Protocol support on the switch. This ensures only one of the redundant paths is active at any time, thus avoiding data path loops. Spanning Tree can be enabled through the switch console, the web browser interface, or ProCurve Manager.
Troubleshooting Diagnosing with the LEDs Troubleshooting Diagnosing with the LEDs Table 4-1 shows LED patterns on the switch and the switch modules that indicate problem conditions. 1. Check in the table for the LED pattern you see on your switch. 2. Refer to the corresponding diagnostic tip on the next few pages. Table 5-1.
Troubleshooting Diagnosing with the LEDs Diagnostic Tips: Problem Solution ➊ The switch is not plugged into an active AC power source, or the switch’s power supply may have failed. The switch will not power up if the top is off. 1. Verify the power cord is plugged into an active power source and to the switch. Make sure these connections are snug. 2. Try power cycling the switch by unplugging and plugging the power cord back in. 3.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Diagnosing with the LEDs Tip Problem Solution ➏ The network connection is not working properly. Try the following procedures: • For the indicated port, verify both ends of the cabling, at the switch and the connected device, are connected properly. • Verify the connected device and switch are both powered on and operating correctly.
Troubleshooting Diagnosing with the LEDs Problem Solution ➐ The port may be improperly configured, or the port may be in a “blocking” state by the normal operation of the Spanning Tree, LACP, or IGMP features. Use the switch console to see if the port is part of a dynamic trunk (through the LACP feature) or to see if Spanning Tree is enabled on the switch, and to see if the port may have been put into a “blocking” state by those features.
Troubleshooting Proactive Networking Troubleshooting Proactive Networking The ProCurve Series 3500yl and 6200yl Switches have built-in management capabilities that proactively help you manage your network including: ■ finding and helping you fix the most common network error conditions (for example, faulty network cabling, and non-standard network topologies) ■ informing you of the problem with clear, easy-to-understand messages ■ recommending network configuration changes to enhance the performance
Troubleshooting Hardware Diagnostic Tests Testing the Switch by Resetting It If you believe the switch is not operating correctly, you can reset the switch to test its circuitry and operating code.
Troubleshooting Hardware Diagnostic Tests Testing Twisted-Pair Cabling Troubleshooting Network cables that fail to provide a link or provide an unreliable link between the switch and the connected network device may not be compatible with the IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-T standards. The twistedpair cables attached to the Switch must be compatible with the appropriate standards. To verify your cable is compatible with these standards, use a qualified cable test device.
Troubleshooting Restoring the Factory Default Configuration As part of your troubleshooting process on the switch, it may become necessary to return the switch configuration to the factory default settings. This process momentarily interrupts the switch operation, clears any passwords, clears the console event log, resets the network counters to zero, performs a complete self test, and reboots the switch into its factory default configuration including deleting the IP address, if one is configured.
Troubleshooting Downloading New Switch Software Troubleshooting Downloading New Switch Software When product enhancements occur for the switch, new software can be downloaded to the switch through several methods, for product enhancements and new features.

B Switch Ports and Network Cables This appendix includes switch connector information and network cable information for cables that should be used with the Switch 3500, including minimum pin-out information and specifications for twisted-pair cables. Note Incorrectly wired cabling is the most common cause of problems for LAN communications. ProCurve recommends that you work with a qualified LAN cable installer for assistance with your cabling requirements.
Switch Ports and Network Cables Because of the increased speed provided by 1000Base-T (Gigabit-T), network cable quality is more important than for either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX. Cabling plants being used to carry 1000Base-T networking must comply with the IEEE 802.3ab standards. In particular, the cabling must pass tests for Attenuation, Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), and Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT).
Switch Ports and Network Cables Mode Conditioning Patch Cord for Gigabit-LX Mode Conditioning Patch Cord for Gigabit-LX The following information applies to installations in which multimode fiberoptic cables are connected to a Gigabit-LX port. Note Mode Conditioning Patch Cord cables only apply to one Gigabit operation. Mode Conditioning Patch Cord cables are not supported for 10 Gigabit operation.
Switch Ports and Network Cables Mode Conditioning Patch Cord for Gigabit-LX Installing the Patch Cord As shown in the illustration below, connect the patch cord to the Gigabit-LX mini-GBIC with the section of single-mode fiber plugged in to the Tx (transmit) port. Then, connect the other end of the patch cord to your network cabling patch panel, or directly to the network multimode fiber.
Switch Ports and Network Cables Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs Auto-MDIX Feature: The 10/100/1000-T ports support the IEEE 802.3ab standard, which includes the “Auto MDI/MDI-X” feature. In the default configuration, “Auto”, the ports on the Switch 3500 all automatically detect the type of port on the connected device and operate as either an MDI or MDIX port, whichever is appropriate.
Switch Ports and Network Cables Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs Straight-Through Twisted-Pair Cable for 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Network Connections Because of the HP Auto-MDIX operation of the 10/100 ports on the switch, for all network connections, to PCs, servers or other end nodes, or to hubs or other switches, you can use straight-through cables.
Switch Ports and Network Cables Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs Crossover Twisted-Pair Cable for 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Network Connection The HP Auto-MDIX operation of the 10/100 ports on the switch also allows you to use crossover cables for all network connections, to PCs, servers or other end nodes, or to hubs or other switches.
Switch Ports and Network Cables Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs Straight-Through Twisted-Pair Cable for 1000 Mbps Network Connections 1000Base-T connections require that all four pairs or wires be connected. Switch Ports and Network Cables Cable Diagram Note Pins 1 and 2 on connector “A” must be wired as a twisted pair to pins 1 and 2 on connector “B”. Pins 3 and 6 on connector “A” must be wired as a twisted pair to pins 3 and 6 on connector “B”.
