Solving Problems That Occur When Using the Command Line Interface

The terminal or terminal emulator cannot access the stack. Check
that:
Your terminal or terminal emulator is correctly configured to operate
as a generic (TTY) terminal, or a VT100 terminal.
You have performed the command line interface wake-up procedure
by pressing [Return] a few times.
The settings on your terminal or terminal emulator are correct:
8 data bits
no parity
1 stop bit
The auto-configuration feature of each Switch in the stack only
works with line speeds from 1200 to 19200 baud.
Remote access to the management software of the stack is enabled
if you are managing the stack over the network. For more
information, see "Enabling and Disabling Remote Access to the
Stack" on page 5-16.
If the login sequence still does not display, reset the stack. For more
information, see "Resetting All the Units in the Stack" on page 4-33 or
page 5-17. If this does not work, initialize the stack. For more
information, see "Initializing All the Units in the Stack" on page 4-34
or page 5-17.
The terminal or terminal emulator can no longer access the
device over the network. Check that:
Remote access to the management software of the stack has not
been disabled. For more information, see "Enabling and Disabling
Remote Access to the Stack" on page 5-16.
The port through which you are trying to access the stack has not
been disabled. For more information, see "Viewing the Status of the
Ports" on page 4-12 or If it is enabled, check the connections and
network cabling for the port.
If there is still a problem, try accessing the stack through a different
port. If you can now access the stack, a problem may have occurred
with the original port. Contact your supplier for further advice.
