Action

The other two LEDs indicate the IDE (I) and SCSI (S) activity
of the following devices:

— IDE (I)

— SCSI (S)

If the Ethernet link LEDs are not on, check the Ethernet cabling.

Note: The link LEDs blink to indicate network activity.

The CallPilot Nortel server
subnet does not work when
the server is connected to
a large Meridian 1 system.

The 201i server uses two auto-negotiating Ethernet network interface
cards (NIC). When the NICs are connected to a 10/100Base-T port,
they try automatically to negotiate transfer rates at the higher speed.
The large Meridian 1 systems have filtered backplanes that generate
loss on all signals, except on the signals routed to the bottom four
pins (the ELAN subnet pins). As a result, the server can go into a
loop or appear unresponsive on the Nortel server subnet.

Use an unfiltered Ring/Tip cable supplied by Nortel.

or

Remove the filter block on the back of the Meridian 1 newer
systems and connect the switch directly to the 201i server I/O
cable.

CAUTION

Dangerous voltage levels can be present in the
back of the Meridian 1 switch. Use the proper
cable, as indicated in the 201i Server Hardware
Installation
guide.
