Possible Causes and Corrective Actions
Normal indication. No action required.
If the SYNC LED is also off, then see the
corrective actions for SYNC.
If the SYNC LED is on while the ON LINE LED
is off, then the following apply:
There is a problem somewhere in the return
•
path from the network module to the hub.
Check the cabling between the RF-OUT
connector and the SSPA.
The SSPA may not be working. Contact
•
your satellite service provider.
The dish antenna is misaligned. Contact
•
your satellite service provider.
There is a hub failure, or the hub is
•
configured incorrectly. Contact your
satellite service provider.
Normal indication. No action required.
If you are concerned about the TX LED being
off, then try to ping the hub or another
destination on the other side of the satellite link.
If the TX LED does not flicker during the ping,
then the network module is not attempting to
send data to the hub.
Wait until the VSAT software completes the
•
boot process.
Verify that your Cisco IOS software
•
configuration is correct. See the
VSAT Satellite WAN Network Module
(NM-1VSAT-GILAT)
module.
The VSAT software has failed. Contact
