Unable to ping the
Management Card
Is the Management Card’s Status LED green,
indicating it is up and running its SNMP agent on the
network? If yes, try to ping another node on the same
network segment as the Management Card. If that
fails, it is not a Management Card problem. If the
Status
LED is not green, or if the ping test succeeds,
perform the following checks:
• Verify that the Management Card is properly seated
in the UPS or expansion chassis.
• Verify all network connections.
• Verify
IP addresses of the Management Card and
the NMS , and make sure both are on the same
network or subnetwork.
• Verify the default gateway (or router) IP address if
the NMS is on a different physical network (or
subnetwork) from the Management Card.
• Verify the number of subnet bits for the
Management Card’s subnet mask.
