Troubleshooting

If a fiber connection cannot be established, perform the following to make sure that
the fiber transceivers on the IE-iMcV-MultiWay are not over/under driving the fiber
receivers:

1. Make sure the fiber wavelength on both connected devices match (i.e. both are

1310 nm single-mode fiber).

2. Make sure the twisted-pair port speed on the IE-iMcV-MultiWay matches that of

the end devices connected to the IE-iMcV-MultiWay. Configure the IE-iMcV-
MultiWay and its link partner to Auto Negotiation or, if using Force mode, be
sure speed and duplex match.

3. IE-iMcV-MultiWay allows the end user to assign a VLAN tag to all management

traffic (SNMP and telnet). It is important to understand that IF using telnet or
iView2 to assign a VLAN tag to management traffic then as soon as this setting is
saved the connectivity will be lost until the PC becomes a member of the VLAN
which was assigned to management traffic.

If a VLAN tag has been assigned to management traffic and the end user cannot
re-establish a connection to the device via iView2 or telnet, directly connect a
PC to the device via the serial cable and review/modify the changes made
(reference section on serial port config).
