Layer 3 Management 24-Port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch

Troubleshooting

This section provides possible solutions to problems regarding the installation
and operation of the Managed 24-Port with Dual Gigabit Switch. If your situ-
ation is described here, the problem should be solved by applying the corre-
sponding solution. If you can’t find an answer here, check the Linksys website
at www.linksys.com.

1. I can’t connect to the Managed 24-Port with Dual Gigabit Switch using the

telnet, Web browser, or SNMP software.

• Be sure you have configured the agent with a valid IP address, subnet mask,

and default gateway (Layer 2).

• Check that you have a valid network connection to the Switch and that the

port you are using has not been disabled.

• Check the network cabling between the management station and the Switch.
• If you cannot connect using telnet, there may already be four active sessions.

Try connecting again at a later time.

2. I forgot or lost the password.

• Reinstall the switch firmware as described in the Appendix. Otherwise, con-

tact Linksys Technical Support for help.
