IP Addresses

The FORMULA 8200 has a factory-assigned unique MAC address but does not
have a default IP address. If you are managing the switch from a console, an IP
address is not required. However, if you are managing the switch over the
network (via SNMP or Telnet), the switch must have a valid IP address.

Assign a unique IP address to the switch by using the BOOT/IP/CONFIG
command. See the FORMULA 8200 User’s Guide, available from
www.alliedtelesyn.com/manuals.htm, for more details.

Power

Solid green means power is applied and the switch is
functioning normally. No action is required.

Off means there is no power to the switch.

Check the power plug and the state of the on/off switch in the back
of the unit. If On, turn it off, wait a few seconds, and turn it on. If
LED remains unlit, replace the switch.

Port LED:
Activity

Flashing or solid green means the port is receiving or
transmitting traffic. No action is required.

Off means there is no traffic. This state does not indicate any
problem on that port. No action is required.

Port LED:
Collision

This LED is always Off. It is not supported on the FORMULA 8200
fiber switch because collisions do not occur on full duplex FX ports.
No action is required.

Port LED:

Link

Solid green means the cable’s link status is good.

Off means there is no link; flashing means there is a link
problem. Verify cable and port speed supported on end device (FX
ports are 100Mbps full duplex only).

Port LED:
Diag

This LED is normally off. This LED is reserved for factory use.
